About this listen

Knocked off her feet after 20 years in public health nursing, Iris Graville quit her job and convinced her husband and their 13-year-old twin son and daughter to move to Stehekin, a remote mountain village in Washington State's North Cascades. They sought adventure; she yearned for the quiet and respite of this community of 85 residents accessible only by boat, float plane, or hiking.

Stehekin means the way through, and Hiking Naked chronicles Graville's journey through questions about work and calling, as well as how she coped with ordering groceries by mail, black bears outside her kitchen window, a forest fire that threatened the valley, and a flood that left her and her family stranded for three days. Ultimately, in the solitude bestowed by pines, firs, and mountain trails, she regained her spiritual footing and found her own way through.
