The BeginningsIt was the trip of 2011 that helped to inspire Outdoor Union. After a third day of hard paddling on the waters of Lake Superior, our group was rewarded with a sandy beach, glass-like water, clear skies, and a bit of fresh Lake Trout caught a few hours earlier. The northern shores of York Island were one of the highlights of this particular "Polite Pirates" adventure, and we were fortunate to have saved the best campsite for last. As we sat by our beach fire and sipped from our flasks, our conversation turned to the trips we had taken together and the love we all shared for the outdoors. Then it came up, "Hey, we should write about this stuff and give people ideas on what to do and what gear to use, and etc." Great idea. What do we call it? Outdoor Union
was born. |
