The eighty-five-day journey of the first two women to canoe the 2,000-mile route from Minneapolis to Hudson Bay.
What The Reviewers Say
Following their 2011 graduation from Minnesota’s St. Olaf College, Natalie Warren and Ann Raiho paddled the 2,000 miles from Minneapolis to Hudson Bay in Manitoba, Canada, becoming the first women to complete the trip..
Longtime friends set out to follow Sevareid and Walter Port's 2,000-mile canoeing route — the first women to complete the expedition .. along with confronting the many challenges of such an ambitious trip, Warren and Raiho also enjoyed many wonders — moose and polar bear sightings, Northern Lights, pearly pink sunrises, and the wild, free-flowing rivers of the north country. By summer's end, being on land began to feel strange to them. As Warren put it: 'The water was our true home.'.
A budding writer and environmental scholar chronicles her historic canoeing adventure with her adventurous best friend.
