Just a note: Craig stated it is only about 800 km to Prince Rupert. This may be true by water, but it is more like 1500 km if you take a car and drive it from Vancouver. It takes 3 days, but costs a lot less if you camp, and other than not having much paddling along the way, would be worth the trip. There is a pretty big paddling community in Rupert and Terrace, some of whom guide in the summer, and some of whom might be interested in just paddling with folks from far away for fun. There are some amazing islands to check out on longer trips. Prince Rupert Harbour is worth a daytrip, for sure. Salt lakes, beaches, middens, petroglyphs: people have been living here for 5000 years, and only recently have started to screw it up. You can leave those bits behind in less than an hour of paddling. Rob MacDonald Terrace, B.C. (which is 1400 km from Vancouver, and 130 km from Rupert) ##################################################################################### This message and any attachments are solely for the use of the intended recipients.
