Well, start walking to Alaska, anyway.
We are walking, packrafting, and skiing 4000 miles from our house in the U District to the Aleutian Islands. We will be exploring the major environmental issues that face our coast: salmon, forests, mining, oil, and global warming.
If you're in the Seattle area, come join us for the FREE kick-off event! Everyone is invited to start with us. Walk for a few minutes, a few hours, or a couple days! Leisurely pace: kids and dogs welcome!
When: Saturday June 9, Noon
Where: 4223 8th Ave NE, Seattle, WA
RSVP preferred ([email protected] or 206 695-2164). Give us a guess at how far you want to walk. We will try to help people coordinate car-pooling.Whether or not you're in Seattle, you can follow the whole journey on our blog, and learn more on our Journey on the Wild Coast website

Best of luck with your amazing journey.
