Writers support keeping refuge a wild place.
Hank Lentfer lives in a cabin in Gustavus with wood heat, hand-pumped water and no appliances because he doesn't like the noise electrical conveniences make. He spends his time writing, making music and pursuing simplicity. So even he is surprised at how he spent his winter doing pretty much the opposite. In late January, with the newly elected president calling for drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, an idea came that thrust Lentfer's life into the fast lane. That idea was to call upon a community of writers, scientists, educators, wilderness advocates, members of the Gwich'in nation and others to put together an anthology in support of keeping the refuge wild.
