General Meeting - March 31, 2010
Darrell Gardner: Under Human Power Expedition
Meeting Location and Time
© Bob Burnett
In the spring of 2004, outdoor enthusiast and adventurer Darrell
Gardner began the journey of a lifetime: to travel under human power
from the Mexico border in southern California to the shores of the
Arctic Ocean in Alaska. This multi-year expedition spans nearly
5,800 miles and started with a 2,650 mile walk in the woods on the
Pacific Crest Trail. Six distinctly different modes of travel will
be used to complete this journey including long distance hiking
(thru hiking), canoeing, sea kayaking, cross-country skiing,
snow shoeing and mountaineering.
Please join Darrell Gardner of the Under Human Power expedition
for a slide show and discussion of his recent 1,400-mile solo sea
kayak trek through the Inside Passage from Seattle, WA to Skagway,
AK. This trip and other segments of his expedition are chronicled
on Darrell's web site and blog
Under Human Power.
I hope to encourage and motivate people of all ages to go beyond
their perceived limitations and follow the passion in their
hearts. By offering images and stories from my extraordinary
life adventures, I invite people to explore, dream and discover
what fascinates them about life and start now toward fulfilling
those dreams.
