National Geographic's Adventurers of the Year, Dave and Amy Freeman spent 100 days paddling from Ely, Minnesota to Washington, DC to raise awareness of threats to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. The 2,000-mile Paddle to DC odyssey began Sunday, August 24 near Ely, Minnesota and finished on December 3 when a canoe covered with signatures to Save the Boundary Waters arrived in the nation’s capital.
