The 750 mile trek takes competitors up the inside passage through some of the most beautiful and stunning terrain in the world from Victoria BC to Ketchikan Alaska. Along the way they will face ragging currents through narrow channels, rain, fog, high winds, no winds and the open Pacific Ocean before reaching Ketchikan.
