Land and Sea - Canoeing down the Churchill River - 1975

[Odyssey]

"In the fall of 1975, talk of building the Lower Churchill hydro project was in full swing. Before the dam was to go up, three trappers - Mark Blake, John Blake, and Horace Goudie - decided to make the 321-kilometre canoe trip from Churchill Falls to Goose Bay, just for old times' sake."
