#146 - Solo sea kayak slow roll through Johnstone Strait and Desolation Sound with Stuart Munson


Listen Later

Stuart Munson is a reformed backpacker who discovered paddling as a new way to get to great places. Today we talk about his two-month slow roll exploration of Desolation Sound and Johnstone Strait in Pacific Northwest Canada.

Stuart Munson shares his two-month solo sea kayak expedition through Desolation Sound, Johnstone Strait, and the Broughton Archipelago. Stuart shares planning tips, campsite strategies (including his favorite aerial tent), wildlife encounters with orcas, porpoises, bears, and a humpback, and how he balanced safety and exploration using charts, Gaia GPS, and a Garmin inReach.
