The Yukon 2020™ expedition is still on schedule for summer of 2022. Art “Karts” Huseonica is planning to keep the Yukon 2020™ branding name unless he is greatly influenced otherwise.
Sadly, Renee has left the team. Karts is talking to someone else to take her place. If he doesn’t reach an agreement, Karts will solo the expedition. Outfitters in the Yukon Territory and in Alaska are standing by to support the expedition in numerous ways, as are individual friends of Karts along the route.
The plan is to start on one of the source lakes near the border with British Columbia then paddle north to the named river. This puts the expediton at 2,022 miles/3,254km. There will be publically accessible GPS track using a SPOT X device. One of the more dangerous parts of the expedition is the requirement to ensure a GPS ping is verified from the Bering Sea to help validate the expediton. It’s part of the trilogy of proof required for a record-attempt; Karts will write more about this in future Blog posts.
