A month ago I heard about a few groups planning to commemorate the 200th anniversary of David Thompson's cross-Canada trade route later this year. It involves paddling from Rocky Mountain House in Alberta to Thunder Bay, Ontario. Along the way communities are planning to host the paddlers and hold celebration events.
I hope to paddle the entire 66 day route; others will participate for a few days or weeks. If you know someone who likes to paddle or really likes Canadian history, please let me know and maybe they will join the adventure.
