-WE'RE DONE!- We got back in early September - after completing our goal. Our blog and photos will be available in October - stay tuned!
Hi ! We’re going on an adventure and we would love you to sponsor us! By sponsoring our team you will be directly supporting the efforts of CPAWS (Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society) to preserve Canada’s Big Wild spaces. For each dollar you give MEC will match it. Your whole donation goes to CPAWS, not into our Scotch fund. Here’s a little about our trip: From August 23rd until September 2nd we’ll be paddling around the Manicouagan Reservoir, located north of Baie Comeau – about a 15 hour drive from Ottawa. We’re heading out on this 250-300 km sea kayak trip around Ile René-Lévasseur, a big crater-made island 65 kilometres in diameter. The waters are 1000 feet deep in places and the channel is 8-10 km wide. High winds and big waves in the middle of nowhere make our trip pretty committing. This part of Canada’s Boreal Forest is made up of Crown Land and borders highway 389, the Trans-Labrador highway. The area is supposed to be beautiful – with tons of wildlife, amazing landscapes and unique geology.
