It began as an idea back in 2003.
After Kelly and Josh returned from their motorcycle trip across the country, they honed in on their next target: Alaska. They knew it would be a challenging trip to plan, but also very rewarding if they could pull it off.
So they planned for a year, and picked up Jared as a trike-riding companion, but the Alaska trip had to be postponed due to the arrival of Josh's second little one.
Now, 5 years after the trip was first conceived, Kelly, Josh, and Jared are about to embark on an adventure like no other. The three will depart from Anchorage, Alaska, in hopes of making it back to the states 15 days later after meandering through Canada for a while.
This trip includes a fishing excursion, a ride down the Alaska Highway, numerous mountains to cross, and the threat of encountering bears.
Now, you can follow along with their trip guide and blog as they make their way through the Great North. Their progress will be updated as allowed by internet connection at hotels along the way...including updating pictures as the trip progresses.
So stay tuned for this great adventure. And register if you'd like to post comments or leave messages for Kelly, Josh, and/or Jared throughout their journey.
