“We’re ready to go,” said Colton Witte. “Absolutely ready to go,” agreed Sean Bloomfield, a few days before their journey.

Matching years of adventurous dreams with recent diligent preparation, Bloomfield and Witte set off on a canoe trip, 2,200 miles from Chaska to Hudson Bay, at 7:30 a.m. Monday.

The pair graduated early from Chaska High School this past month. “Go big or go home,” said Witte. “That’s our motto.”
