Away We Go

At 5:00 am, May 22nd, we will be waking up and taking the three hour drive to our trips beginning at Lake Itasca, Minnesota. The weather is not supposed to be in our favor, rain in the morning and the forecast is rain for the next couple of days.

After we arrive at Itasca we plan on testing out the canoe once again, setting up the equipment and making sure everything feels right. Then we will make the Go-No-Go decision. Our time of shove off is expected to be between 9:00am and 10:00am.

Keep visiting the blog, we'll keep you updated on everything along the way!

Life is the experience, try something new...

Please feel free to post your comments on this site or send us emails, we would love to hear your thoughts about our plans. All feedback and information is welcomed!

We were lucky enough to walk up to the Mississippi headwaters just in time to see you two embark on your epic journey on May 22. We've posted some photos on our blog.

Congratulations and good luck!

Hello,

We are now two weeks into our trip and I got a chance to see your comment on our site! Thanks for the mention on your site.

It looks like you two have been up to a lot of travelling lately and we are happy that we could be an inspiration for your experience down the Boise River!
