"Hudson Bay Bound: Two Women, One Dog, Two Thousand Miles to the Arctic" by Natalie Warren (book cover)

Join FMR, Friends of the Boundary Waters, St. Croix River Association, and the University of Minnesota Press for a virtual launch celebrating the publication of Hudson Bay Bound: Two Women, One Dog, and Two Thousand Miles to the Arctic by Natalie Warren.

Hudson Bay Bound details the remarkable 85-day journey of the first two women to canoe the 2,000-mile route from Minneapolis to Hudson Bay, giving readers an insider view from the practicalities of planning a three-month canoe expedition to the successful accomplishment of the adventure of a lifetime.

The evening will include an introduction by polar explorer Ann Bancroft, music, videos, trivia, poetry, storytelling, and a Q&A moderated by environmental activist and canoe expeditioner Lee Vue.

If you are able to give, donations to FMR and other host organizations are encouraged but not required.
