Description

Fellow Ground Pounders:

The Michigan Bush Rats� will be snowshoeing and sledging down the Moose River in Ontario, Canada, from February 7 to February 22, 2009 (includes four travel days).

Their arduous off-trail route will involve travel down the Moose River, from Moose River Crossing to Moosonee on James Bay, the lower arm of the Arctic Ocean�s Hudson Bay.

A link to more information about this extremely-strenuous, expert-level, alcohol- and tobacco-free, extreme-cold-weather expedition will be posted on this thread in the future.

This expedition requires prior wilderness-tripping experience with LandNavMan as well as a high level of physical fitness and minus-40-degree (standing temp, not windchill) equipment. If you are interested, contact Michael Neiger (LandNavMan) in Marquette, Michigan at mneiger@hotmail.com
