Sylvania - main floor Sun 1:30pm-2:15pm
What is it that makes an expedition valuable? Is it the miles traveled, rapids run, cool pictures taken, or the remote tracts of land?
Ben Berthiaume and Isaac Dana set off on an expedition with one goal: Reach Hudson Bay by canoe! The idea of Hudson Bay is almost mythical. It calls the adventurous even through the dense bush and many obstacles. Ben and Isaac couldn’t have known what they would experience through these travels.
Their journey is one of grueling challenges, valuable rewards, and meeting some of the kindest people of the north. Come learn how the struggles of their journey brought them face to face with the people they needed to meet the most and what made their expedition so valuable.
