The brigade of the expedition To the North Sea left Tadoussac on May 31, four weeks ago already.

Since then, it is several hundred kilometers by canoe that have been covered up the rivers, starting with the Fjord-du-Saguenay, then the Chicoutimi River with its seven portions, the crossing of Lake Kenogami and Lake Kenogamichiche, to finally join the Aulnaies River, then the Belle River Leading up to the breathtaking Lake Saint Jean.
Part of Normandin this Sunday morning, the brigade is now continuing its uphill from the Ashuapmushuan River.

Over the 10 public stops along the way, the team had the chance to meet hundreds of canoeing, history and fishing enthusiasts, as well as several school groups.
A huge thank you to everyone who moved and showed interest in the adventure.
The expedition isn’t just about a canoeing experience: it also seeks to commemorate the history of the Route des Furrures, while showcasing the art of traditional cedar canoe construction, a skill as remarkable as rare today.

In pictures, a few memories of the past weeks of layovers.

The brigade will be more discreet until Chibougamau, the next stop scheduled for July 13, but don't worry: very interesting content is coming very soon...
