217 - Why I'm Planning to do a 1,000 Mile Trip in the Arctic by Myself this Summer

This summer I am attempting to travel 1,000 miles in a canoe by myself in Canada's northern boreal forest and the barren lands of the eastern arctic. In this episode I talk about why I would ever want to do such a thing, the logistics and planning involved, contingency plans, dealing with bears, and how I'm going to pack 50 days of food into a boat that doesn't quite seem large enough...

During the trip I hope to use a satellite data link to upload short updates and episodes to this podcast, as well as the occasional picture to my Instagram which you can follow @stephankesting or https://www.instagram.com/stephankesting/

I hope you enjoy this episode. Subscribe to the podcast if you want the live from the field updates!
