Join Friends of the Boundary Waters for a presentation with Scott Duffus and Scott Miller of Fastest Known Paddle. They’ve set records on the Mississippi and Minnesota Rivers, and next year they’re going after the Missouri River record, standing for 50 years since Verlen Kruger and Steve Landick set it.
The Missouri is a tough river, with dammed stretches and long flat, windy sections. Hear their stories, strategies, and what it takes to tackle one of America’s most iconic rivers.
