The Churchill Returns

After three weeks on the trail, several hundred miles of paddling, and rides in planes, trains, and automobiles, the men of Athabasca cabin have returned to camp.  The adventures they shared on the trail won't soon be forgotten, and the stories they'll tell will be those of challenges and of triumph.

 Loading up the float plane in Thompson

 Robert breathes life into the fire

 Scout the rapids first

 Then shoot them

 The men arrive back at Chippewa, and the whole camp comes out to welcome them home

Then they share with us some of the stories of the trail.  From shooting rapids to paddling next to beluga whales or even taking a dip in Hudson Bay, these young men have experienced something that few others ever have or will.

Welcome back, Athabasca!
