(More customer reviews)Few people have the gall to drop everything in the name of adventure. "This Water Goes North" is the story of a group of friends who dared to travel well over a thousand miles in nothing more than beat up boats and their wits. From Iowa to the Hudson bay, the story reads like an adventure novel, but is a true-life story, which makes it all the more intriguing, and may inspire readers to take a few risks themselves in the name of adventure. "The Water Goes North" is very much recommended, enthralling reading.

From the tranquil farmland waters of Minnesota to the treacherous wilderness rapids of Manitoba, four young men in two old canoes experience an adventure that every kid talks about, but few take. With leaky tents, little experience, and no TV cameras or big-time sponsors, the lads set out in 1979 to paddle 1,400 miles north to Hudson Bay. Why? Why not! Driven by a youthful sense of adventure, they took the chance of a lifetime just to see what lay around the next turn. Sit in their canoe as they glide through smooth waters and survive rushing rivers. Experience with them the desolation of true wilderness and go on humorous escapades with local characters. With graceful storytelling, Dennis Weidemann weaves this richly diverse tale of near disasters, splendid sunsets, bootleggers, Mounties, polar bears, and the indomitable spirit of youth. Share the dream that still lives, and that will surely inspire others.
