FROM A GLANCE
Route Overview

Group Overview
The six of us have been spending the vast majority of our summers together since 2008, initially as campers at Camp Kooch-i-ching and later as canoe guides at the same organization. During the summer of 2019 while the six of us were guiding canoe trips together, the idea for this trip was hatched. Originally slated for the summer of 2020, this trip had to be postponed due to Covid-19 travel restrictions, but we are excited to be going on this expedition this summer!
A remote expedition of this caliber is not cheap. With food, transportation, resupplies by float plane, gear, insurance, and other miscellaneous costs, we have estimated the expedition to cost almost $70,000. Between grant funding, gear/monetary sponsorships, and significant personal contributions from each of our six members, we're getting close to reaching that mark, but your support in this final fundraising push would mean the world to us. If you'd like to support, please see our GoFundMe (linked below), or send a donation via Venmo @centennialexpedition.
