I wrote a book!Learn More
For the last three years I’ve been anchored in the South Pacific, writing a book about my voyage. From daunting weather to relationships sweet and sour, wild waves and boat repairs, this very personal memoir shares my many challenges, my search for harmony with nature, and how I come to understand the unity of all things. The team at Patagonia Books, along with illustrator Daniella Manini, bring my story to life with amazing art and four photo galleries! It’s a work of enormous love, with the intention to inspire others to follow their hearts, protect our planet, and live out their dreams. Book is available now in hard copy at most your favorite book stores, as an e-book here or you click on the link to the right to order online with delivery to your address! With love and gratitude, Capt Liz Clark After 3 years of writing, I’m excited to share the personal STORY of my voyage with the world. Book available now!

Help staff your local polling place this Election
Help staff your local polling place this Election Day! This year, the US is facing an unprecedented shortage of poll workers that could mean closed polling places and long delays. We need those with minimal risk for COVID19 to step up and power our polling places. @Patagonia along with a coalition of businesses and nonprofits helped launch Power the Polls to recruit a new wave of poll workers -- especially among younger, more diverse populations that have not historically filled these roles -- to ensure a safe, secure, healthy and fair election for all voters. ⁠ ⁠ The link in my bio for this post will take you to Power the Polls & direct you to the application for your community. In order to be eligible to volunteer as a poll worker you'll need to fill out the application and then, once the city contacts you, attend a training. As a poll worker, you would be expected to be there on Election Day for the entire day and in most states, you will get paid for your time. Each community is different, so check out the volunteer requirements prior to applying. SIGN UP NOW so that you can be trained before Election Day! And don't forget to get plenty of sun and fresh air to boost your immunity for Nov 3. 🌞 Photo by the wonderful @laurentmasurel for @patagonia_surf #PowerthePolls #powerdemocracy

Only 55 more sunsets until U.S. ballots must be in
Only 55 more sunsets until U.S. ballots must be in... Have you made your personal voting plan? ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Are you registered? Did you double check your registration? Did you choose absentee this year? Planning to drop off your ballot at your polling station ahead of time? Or take advantage of the early opening polls in your community to vote early...? Do you live overseas like me? You can still vote! Have you studied up on your state and local candidates and various measures that will be on your ballot? Have you found a voter's guide that you aligns with your values? ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Go to vote.org and make your plan! (Link in bio) They makes it super easy--it's a non-profit founded by two awesome women helping make voting more accessible to all. These unique times make it extra important to make sure we get our votes in early and as safely as possible, and without voter suppression hiccups. What happens in the US affects the entire world, so my American friends, get your plan in order! and I challenge you to ask 10 people you see this week if they have made their voting plan too!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Also... many businesses are giving there employees the day off or extra time off to make sure they have time to vote. @patagonia is even closing their stores to turn all attention toward participating in our democracy that day! If you want your business or boss to participate in this movement, go to maketimetovote.org. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #vote #voteforjustice #votetheenvironment #voteforabetterworld #votingplan⁠⠀ @patagonia_surf @highfieldboats

Getting kids out in nature has endless benefits, e
Getting kids out in nature has endless benefits, especially for vulnerable and at risk youth! My seasta @peregrina sails & I recently got to spend an afternoon at virtual ‘camp’ with some of the children in the Los Angeles foster care system, thanks to an invitation from @happytrails4kids. We shared our sailing experiences and encouraged them to dream up their own. When I met @peregrinasails last year (a former foster child now sailing alone around the world!), I learned that foster children are of the most vulnerable and forgotten part of society, often with few of the joys of childhood, and no where to go at 18 when they "age-out' of the foster system. Happy Trails for Kids is a non-profit organization that provides monthly outdoor experiences to over 400 kids, support from familiar counselors & peers, and provides them with some stability and positivity no matter what else is happening in their lives. They make a long-term commitment to the kids who the join the program. Due to COVID all of their programs have had to go virtual, but they had a fun line-up of engaging speakers and creative content for the kids despite the extra challenges of these times. I wanted to spotlight foster children today and share about the Happy Trails program here to encourage donations especially since their normal fundraising gatherings have been cancelled. If you live in LA, there may be other ways you can help too. We all know how important a connection to nature can be for healing, hope, confidence, and happiness! Thank you to Happy Trails for giving that opportunity to these wonderful kids! I hope to really be able to take them sailing someday.

“Yikaih” is the word for the northern lights i
“Yikaih” is the word for the northern lights in Gwich’in language. I dream of looking up at yikaih one day from the native lands of the Gwich’in people in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Of feeling the winds of these frozen plains braze my cheeks. Learning the ways of the Gwich’in people. Maybe even catching a glimpse of the largest remaining caribou herd on Earth working its way across the landscape… and marveling at the meandering rivers and humbling peaks of this largest remaining stretch of US wilderness. But the Trump administration just opened the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas development, meaning that the government can now auction off leases to companies who want to drill on the Refuge’s Coastal Plain—home to polar bears, musk ox, wolves, birds, grizzlies, and the Gwich’in people who depend on the health of this ecosystem to thrive. What happens in the Artic National Wildlife refuge will have an impact well beyond its boundaries. We cannot sit idle and let greedy fossil fuel companies bulldoze and pillage this vital ecosystem, Gwich’in sacred lands, and further endanger us all with the impacts of climate change. We can sign the petition in my bio link to #standwiththegwichin who have been fighting this for decades. Donate to Gwich’in Steering Committee if you can while on their page. Share. And make sure you are registered to VOTE in the upcoming election so we can elect leaders who value indigenous rights, wildlife protection, and ending our dependence on fossil fuels! I’m following @ourarcticrefuge @quannah.rose @keepalaskawild to stay updated, feel free to suggest others.
