Dear Innova,
I
am planning to celebrate the new millennium, and my 60th birthday, by making a
3-4 week solo trek 150 miles along the eskers 250 miles northeast of
Yellowknife, NW Territories, Canada. This trackless area is characterized by
ponds, lakes, streams and elevated eskers (gravel bars left by sub-glacial
rivers). I will travel early this summer on foot, pulling a small, collapsible
cart. When water crossings are required, I will paddle my gear and self in an
inflatable kayak.
