Bear Woman Rising: Two Women, One Journey Dorothy Staley

"As I watched them drive away, I feared she would not make it through another winter. I never forgot her." Jesse

In 1976 Yukon Territory, two very different women join forces. Jesse-a lone female scientist at an arctic outpost, single and pregnant-now on the run. Kara- an earth mother song writer-heading to the remote northern wilderness for the Alaskan winter, her daughter on her lap and gold-mining husband at the wheel.


Join them at Whitey's Roadhouse, where they first meet. Journey with them as they head their own ways, connected by the empowering forged bond of female friendship, and rising determination to pursue their dreams despite daunting obstacles. This is the powerful journey of Bear Woman Rising.
