When John Temple and Dean Goodman’s dream job fell into their laps in the summer of 1971, they quickly said yes.

As they documented landmarks, wildlife, potential campsites, and treacherous portages, they also found their place and purpose in the world that would carry forth into the rest of their adult lives.
