As enchantingly odd today as when the author, a city slicker at the time, found it. Join his trip of discovery in this small town cut off from the rest of us by nature.
Grant McConnell was born in Portland, Oregon. After living year 'round in Stehekin in the 1940s, he maintained a home in the valley and spent part of each year there until his death in 1994. He was a founding board member of the North Cascades Conservation Council and he and his wife, Jane, were leaders in the effort to establish the North Cascades National Park. The cabin in Stehekin remains in the McConnell family.
