Stephanie Land & Judy Blunt

Stephanie Land grew up in Alaska and thought she was ready for anything the extreme climate could throw her way. She recalls the night in Gold Stream Valley when winter proved her wrong. Judy Blunt's memoir, "Breaking Clean," tells the story of "practical rather than humane" decisions that ranchers along Montana's Hi-Line had to make after the devastating 1964 blizzard.

(Broadcast: "Reflections West," 11/26/14. Listen weekly on the radio, Wednesdays at 3:00 p.m.)
