Paddle to DC: A Quest for Clean Water from Nate Ptacek on Vimeo.
2014 National Geographic Adventurers of the year, Minnesota wilderness guides Amy and Dave Freeman paddled and sailed 2,000 miles from Ely, Minnesota to Washington, D.C. on a quest to save the Boundary Waters from the threat of sulfide-ore mining. If built, these mines would leach sulfuric acid and heavy metals that would flow directly into our nation’s most cherished and iconic wilderness area for centuries into the future. Watch the adventure here.
