## Resource

Three canoes set off from Haines, Alaska, racing against the tide for a 90-mile paddle to Juneau’s Celebration festival—a biennial cultural gathering for Tlingit, Haida, and Tsimshian peoples. Led by master carver Wayne Price, who’s captained this voyage seven times and paddled in a canoe he carved over a decade ago, the fleet includes paddlers from Carcross, Kodiak, and Arizona, showcasing the event’s far-reaching community. Kevin Jones, Choctaw and longtime collaborator with Price, captains his cedar-and-spruce-strip canoe, built to honor tradition while conserving old-growth trees. Before setting out, they gathered for a sacred beach blessing, underscoring the spiritual depth of the journey. With seasoned paddlers mentoring newcomers, this voyage blends physical endurance with cultural reverence, all aimed at reaching Juneau for a celebration of shared heritage.
