The Green Kayak Expedition 2009

The Expedition
Our plan for the summer of 2009 was to trace the 500+ mile path of the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill from
Bligh Reef in Prince William Sound, around the Kenai Peninsular, past
Kodiak Island and down the Alaskan Peninsula by sea kayak.
Unfortunately due to economic reasons, this expedition has been postponed.
The aim of his venture is to raise awareness for the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics and the Ocean Conservancy. We will continue to raise awareness for these great causes closer to home while we plan the next big adventure.
As more information about our expeditions becomes available it will be posted on this web site.
Please visit regularly and get involved.
Thank you,

This expedition all started with a idea over a beer and a soggy napkin map... I wanted to do something different, not just another kayak trip, something that would benefit not just me or my community but the environment as a whole. As a veteran sea kayaker and Leave No Trace Trainer the choice was simple. Get everyone involved and get them to care. I see the negative impact we are making on our marine environment, the shoreline and upcountry and it can be different. LNT is not just for the wilderness, it also teaches us how to be stewards of own backyards and the front country too. In our everyday lives we can make a difference. I intend to, will you?
