A midlife crisis in Alaska

In the spring of 2007, after the worst winter in the history of Juneau, Alaska, photograper and wilderness guide Lynn Schooler had what is called a 'midlife crisis'.

Exhausted by his house building project and aware his marriage was on the rocks, he sought solace by escaping into nature.

He set out on a solo two-week journey into the Alaskan wilderness.

Lucy Ash spoke to him and asked whether the journey had helped him to find perspective.

Lynn Schooler's book 'Walking أغر؟´«أ½' is published by Bloomsbury.
