While most of us are taking leisurely paddles at the cottage, on multi-day camping trips or day trips this summer… two Klepper folding kayak paddlers undertook more extreme expeditions. Bill Nedderman, from Des Moines Iowa, USA, is paddling from Rocky Mountain House, AB to Montreal, QC. German Juergen Schuette attempted a first, a folding kayak expedition around Spitsbergen/Svalbard, half-way between Northern Norway and the North Pole. Read the Press Release (in PDF)
