The Route

This is the nitty gritty, the distance, the hours, the days. The adventure will start at the official source of the Mississippi at Lake Itasca from there we will kayak south through the states to the Gulf of Mexico a complete distance of 2400miles. To complete this monumental distance we'll be paddling 40 miles a day every day. The expedition will last for over two months and see the team paddle a distance that equates to three times the length of Great Britain. We as a team expect to be challenged physically and mentally but are more than willing to take it on in support of a charity that provides help to those that challenge themselves in greater ways. We hope that this will not only inspire you to help this organisation but also inspire you to explore and enjoy the outdoors. |
