I made this for some special people who will be WALKING, YES WALKING!!!! Around Lake Superior.
The map of Lake Superior is printed on Parchment Paper.
Full Circle Superior, in a nutshell, is a journey around a lake led by two people with a passion for adventure and nature. But Lake Superior is not just any old big pond. It holds one-tenth of all the freshwater in the world, and has a shoreline 1,600 miles long - the length of a road trip between Duluth and Florida. Countless cities and communities depend on it for their water supply, trade, and recreation; for them and others, this body of freshwater is the foundation of economic, societal, and environmental well-being.
In a supported expedition stretching across five months and several states, Mike and Kate will circumnavigate Lake Superior on foot, hiking as close to the shoreline of the Lake as possible. They will be undertaking not just a scientific expedition but personal sojourn: Throughout the hike, Mike and Kate will be recording important data about the ecology of the shoreline, the people and places they encounter, the streams they cross, and the adventure of a lifestyle as focused nomads. They will speak and present along the way, and partnering with a group of dedicated professionals and organizations, publish articles, writings and thoughts on this website to share with the world their discoveries, their insights and feelings and dreams.
The world is only beginning to realize the threat posed to all of us by the reduction and pollution of our limited supplies of Water. It is hoped that this expedition will bring to the world a greater knowledge and appreciation of this Element of Life. You are invited to keep track of their efforts on this website's journal and their Facebook page.
With just days left to setting off, the expedition is now a registered non-profit! If you would like to help advance the causes of research, education and environmental conservation around Lake Superior (and get a tax deduction for 2010), please consider making a contribution to Full Circle; Sponsors and donors like you are the ones who really help to make this expedition a success!
