Jackson Moores hasn't added a story.
A hearty Hello from Benji, Emily, Julie and Jackson!
Our story is that the four of us met through outdoor work that we all
care about. We recognized that we all hold nature and expeditions as
very important to us. When the dream of an Arctic sea kayaking tour
was created everyone was eager.
Our dream is not just for a big expedition. We would like to
explore wild parts of our country. Search and connect to help find
meaning to the risk we will pursue. Through that connect with an
environment and its people. Through it all we think it is important to
share the relevance and learning that we find. We deeply believe our
story will be an adventurous, enlightening and hopefully an inspiring one.
The reality of major expedition planning is slightly off from
what is imagined. We do spend much time pouring over maps and
practicing skills. However, the cost of our enterprise is a
considerable one. We all have modest incomes from our pursuit of
adventure employment and have become creative in acquiring resources
for this trip. We have presented public talks, applied for grants,
recycled, been dehydrating food for months and now are crowd funding.
We would love any support you feel you would like to donate.
Our expedition is a rugged and lofty endeavor. It will be work,
gear and calorie intensive. If you feel inspired to help support young
adventurers here is where some of your money could go.
$10 is a days food for one person
$20 is one of our 17
nautical charts
$50 is a days worth of food and fuel for the
whole team
$80 is one of our two stoves
$285 is an emergency
personal locator beacon
$500 is our Ice Bear Alarm bear fence to
circle our tent
Other costs are the shipping of resupply goods and food, remote
safety insurance, as well as, kayak related gear. I guess I should
mention an exciting spice kit as well! For all those who are motivated
to donate, we thank you. We hope we also inspire you to follow our
adventure and maybe take one of your one.
Sincerely,
Julie, Emily, Jackson and Ben
