, jimbairdadventurer, alaska, outdoors Into Alaska Terrifying Windstorm Hits Hard, 10Days Family Camping in Alaskan BC Wilderness E. 7 Our 5000 km drive to the putin over, we finally begin our 10day wilderness canoe trip down the Lower Stikine River which will take us through much of Northern British Columbia and into Alaska. We hade our two kids and dog with us. Our son Hudson is two and our son Wesley is 5. Wesley has Fox G1 Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder which has given him severe disabilities. We paddled an 18 Nova Craft Prospector canoe which is able to carry 1, 400 lbs. We werent near our weight capacity but it was hard finding room for all our gear. Finally on the river, we began the trip in nearperfect conditions. We run a few rapids and float past the iconic Three Sisters Rocks that majestically rise from the river. The day is filled with excitement as we navigate thrilling rapids, skillfully avoiding the waves and discovering the perfect spot to set up
