The Marine Science Lecture Series starts a new season with author, wilderness guide and naturalist Jennifer Hahn on Oct. 12.
Jennifer Hahn is the author of the forthcoming book, Pacific Feast: A Cook’s Guide to West Coast Foraging and Cuisine (October 2010). She has over twenty-five years of wilderness travel experience and is an expert sea kayaker. She has hiked the Pacific Crest Trail from northern California to Canada and solo-kayaked from Ketchikan, Alaska, to Bellingham, Washington, over two springs and summers. She runs Elakah Kayak Expeditions and is the author of Spirited Waters: Soloing South Through the Inside Passage. She relies on wild harvesting to keep her pack and kayak light, and lives in Bellingham, Washington.
The lecture will take place from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at YMCA Camp Orkila’s Marine Salmon Center.
