The author, embarking from Victoria, describes the enthralling adventure that awaited him, starting with his sea voyage up the Alaskan coast and the passage through fjord-like Lynn Canal.

The author's journey continued as he navigated the treacherous lakes and rapids, providing a vivid description of the region's stunning scenery and the challenges it presented.
