| Outside Passage - Summer 2006 |
| This is an information page for my solo paddle of the Outside Passage Route on Canada's Pacific Coast. I plan to start at Prince Rupert on June 20 and end at Port Hardy a few weeks later. Weather and sea conditions will dictate the schedule. I intend to check in regularly by satellite phone. Progress updates may be posted, but the main purpose of this page is simply to collect together the various links Kirti needs in order to send me weather and swell forecasts via a simple SMS protocol. Proper trip reports and photos will not appear until I return. |
