The Sun Is a Compass: My 4,000-Mile Journey Into the Alaskan WildsFor fans of Cheryl Strayed, the gripping story of a biologist's human powered journey from the Pacific Northwest to the Arctic to rediscover her love of birds, nature, and adventure.

For fans of Cheryl Strayed, the gripping story of a biologist's human-powered journey from the Pacific Northwest to the Arctic to rediscover her love of birds, nature, and adventure.During graduate school, as she conducted experiments on the peculiarly misshapen beaks of chickadees, ornithologist Caroline Van Hemert began to feel stifled in the isolated, sterile environment of the lab. Worried that she was losing her passion for the scientific research she once loved, she was compelled to experience wildness again, to be guided by the sounds of birds and to follow the trails of animals.
In March of 2012, she and her husband set off on a 4,000-mile wilderness journey from the Pacific rainforest to the Alaskan Arctic, traveling by rowboat, ski, foot, raft, and canoe. Together, they survived harrowing dangers while also experiencing incredible moments of joy and grace -- migrating birds silhouetted against the moon, the steamy breath of caribou, and the bond that comes from sharing such experiences.
A unique blend of science, adventure, and personal narrative, The Sun is a Compass explores the bounds of the physical body and the tenuousness of life in the company of the creatures who make their homes in the wildest places left in North America. Inspiring and beautifully written, this love letter to nature is a lyrical testament to the resilience of the human spirit.

great product
Size: 36 Gallon, Style: Heavy Duty (2 Wheel)
very sturdy fits almost my whole tank inside it although it makes it kind of too heavy to move around. It’s really easy to install. It has all the hook ups. It looks great. The size is perfect. Doesn’t seem to make any noise and it’s thick sturdy and and nothing leaks out all the connections are there and they connect very well.

A Game-Changer: Camco Deluxe Poop Tote Review
Size: 36 Gallon, Style: Heavy Duty (2 Wheel)
The Camco Deluxe Poop Tote is a standout choice in the market, offering exceptional build quality, comprehensive features, and impressive functionality. What sets it apart is not just its superior design but also its surprisingly affordable price tag. As someone who previously owned a Thetford unit, I can attest to the significant difference in quality. The Thetford unit, while well-made, fell short in design by lacking a crucial component - the drain valve for the tote. Even after investing in the missing part separately, using it remained a source of frustration due to its flawed design.In stark contrast, the Camco Deluxe Poop Tote comes fully equipped with a well-thought-out design that prioritizes practical real-world usage. One particularly thoughtful feature is the inclusion of front wheels, which make a noticeable difference, especially for older users. These wheels significantly reduce the effort required to pull the cart towards your tow vehicle, enhancing the overall user experience.

Well made and useful. Wish the handle was more comfortable though
Size: 21 Gallon, Style: Heavy Duty (2 Wheel)
Like most people I am using this tote to unload my camper’s grey water tank while camping. It is well made and good quality and has worked very well. They also provide all of the fittings you might need. The only thing I don’t like is the main orange handle. The front side it solid but the backside is ribbed or hollow. When the tank is full, and I use the handle, the ribbed side kinda hurts my hand. A work glove solves this issue though but I wish the handle was solid.
