About this listen
After accelerating their studies and graduating high school early, two teenagers set off from their hometown in Minnesota to embark on a 2,200-mile canoe journey up the heart of North America. Their destination: the permafrost shores of Hudson Bay. Inspired by a passion for the simple life, where gadgets and schedules are replaced by nature and its harsh beauty, the duo found something that many believe is lost: a true adventure.
Follow the pair up the flooding Minnesota River and through the prairie plains of North Dakota, across man-sized waves on Lake Winnipeg, and down the foaming rapids of the Canadian north. The triumphs and trials of the unforgiving wild challenged their friendship, dreams, and lives in a way that even they could have never predicted. For those who have dreamt of wilderness escape, or those who prefer to simply hear about it, Adventure North will spur the imaginative spirit and remind you that adventure is always just around the next bend.

The book takes the reader along with Sean and his friend Colton as they paddle up the Minnesota River, across Lake Winnipeg, and down the Hayes River to the Arctic Ocean. Along the way, they encounter wild animals, friendly locals, dangerous rapids, and stunning scenery. They also face physical and mental hardships, such as hunger, exhaustion, injuries, loneliness, and doubt. They learn to overcome these challenges with courage, perseverance, and teamwork. They also discover the beauty and simplicity of living in harmony with nature, away from the distractions and comforts of modern society.
The book is well-written and engaging, with vivid descriptions and dialogues that make the reader feel part of the adventure. The book is not only entertaining but also inspiring and educational. It shows the reader what it takes to follow one’s passion and achieve one’s goals, even if they seem impossible or crazy. It also teaches the reader about the history, culture, and ecology of the regions they travel through. It also raises awareness about the environmental issues and threats that affect these areas.
Adventure North is a book that I recommend to anyone who loves adventure, nature, or personal growth. This book will make you laugh and think. It is a book that will make you appreciate the wonders of the world and the power of the human spirit. This book will make you want to go on your own adventure.
