The St. Croix River offers solitude and solace, scenery and diverse species, and sunshine and sand.

The year 2020 made those qualities even more valuable.

This collection of essays and scattering poems, written from winter through late fall, follows adventures on the water and on the bluffs, tracing the year’s uncertain arc. The stories are found on foot, paddling a canoe or kayak, and by boat.

These words are an ode to the river, the many living things that call it home — and a priceless place for many people.
