Canoeing With the CreeIt is 1930 and two teenagers graduate from a Minneapolis high school. One of them, Eric Sevareid has no plans for the summer but a classmate; Walter Port talks him into joining him on a canoe trip he had been thinking about for some time. It would be canoeing from Minneapolis up the and Red River into Canada and to the Hudson Bay. Walter knew enough about the plan to know there would be rivers, lakes and streams all the way to Hudson Bay. They didn’t know a lot more about what such a journey would involve nor did they have the money or experience for such a trip.Being teen age boys, these details did not deter them. They made a list of items they thought would need, somewhat pared down to fit their budget. The obtained a eighteen foot square sterned canvas covered canoe for the trip. Eric, who had been the editor of the school paper, suggested they get a sponsor, maybe a paper that would print stories they would submit while they made the journey. They were turned down by some prospects but did find the Minneapolis Star was interested and they were given a stipend to help them get started and another payment if they finished the trip. And so they took off from Minneapolis on June seventeenth with worried parents waving and hoping they would return in a few days after facing the reality of what they were attempting to do. Something no one, as far as they knew, had ever attempted before. The trip up the Minnesota and Red River into Canada and Winnipeg had been mostly tedious but time consuming. They did find people along the route had been following them because of the stories being run in the Minneapolis Star. At times this became helpful when they ran into difficulties and also provided them with some free meals along the way. However they were worried because they were running behind their planned schedule and the possibility of not making it to Hudson Bay before a freeze up. Also the hazardous and largely unknown part of the trip lay ahead. On they experienced ocean sized waves and wind that kept them off the lake for day making the completion of the journey before freeze up even less likely. After leaving lake Winnipeg they faced five hundred miles of wilderness and little chance of encountering other people. If they ran into trouble there would be no one to help them. If the streams would freeze up they would have little chance of surviving with only the summer clothing they wore. Their maps will rudimentary the possibility of becoming lost was a real possibility. No GPS. No means of communicating with the outside world. They ran into rapids in which they could have lost the canoe and all their gear, but somehow they made it before freeze up and they got their end of trip payment from the Minneapolis Star. Great story, well written by Eric Sevareid.
