North Carolina Connections
Beyond the Cape Fear River itself, there are several North Carolina connections to this trip. The primary sponsor for this expedition will again be Great Outdoor Provision Company, based out of Raleigh. I will be paddling a kayak designed and manufactured by Hurricane Aqua Sports, a company out of Warsaw, NC. My life jacket is designed and constructed by Astral Designs, who are located in Asheville. The camping hammock I'll use is made by Eagles Nest Outfitters, also from Asheville.
Being a North Carolina kid from the big city of Climax, I think it's great to be associated with all these NC-based companies. It's like paddling a big southern-fried hug.
