I travel with a heavy heart with the passing of my friend Dominic Marrese from prostate cancer. He was a strong advocate for men as well as my endeavor. My heart is with his family.

June 24, 2016

I briefly have internet service from Galena, AK and have made it this far with the help of Carol and Roger Huntington and 3 hot meals and a cabin to sleep in! I have 500 miles to go which will likely take me a month because of headwinds and the current. The river is now … More 06/24/2016 – Service from Galena, AK

Happy solstice from the Kokrines Bible Camp on the Yukon! Pace from 7 to 3mph with storms and headwinds keeping me off the water for days. Look forward to getting back on the water!
