Four Pizzas and Two Paddles

Two Minnesota teenagers have retraced Eric Sevareid's 1930 canoe journey from Ft Snelling to Hudson Bay. Sevareid told the world about his trip in the memoir Canoeing with the Cree. Today's travelers, Colton Witte and Sean Bloomfield, announced the end of their journey via a satellite beacon message.

Details of the trip are here and here.--David E
