from recent posts - blip.tv (beta) August 26, 2008
Ashland, Wisconsin residents Alissa Weitz, 26, and Brian Castillo, 23, will soon be completing their 1,300 mile journey around Lake Superior. They are a couple in love with Lake Superior and each other - on a modern day lover's adventure. They arrived in Marquette over the weekend and spent Lake Superior Day on Sunday hiking with friends and swimming including jumping off the tall cliffs at the city s black rocks. A big part of their quest is educating the public about the environmental value of Lake Superior.Averaging 25 miles a day - with their longest day over 40 miles.They encountered water temperatures as low as 38 degrees, fog outside of Marquette, rough waves outside of Houghton, Michigan that prevent them from rounding the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula - and instead cut through the Keweenaw Waterway.They left Ashland, Wisconsin on July 1 and hope to complete their two-month journey on or about the first week of September.Weitz is a native of Dubuque, Iowa and Castillo is a native of Madison, Wisconsin.Graduates of the Northland College outdoor education program in Ashland, Wisconsin, the couple were competitors working for different kayak guiding companies when they met two years ago and fell in love.

Lake Superior Day is sponsored by the Lake Superior Bi-national Forum and is held annually on the third Sunday of July. Alissa and Brian spent Lake Superior Day hiking with friends and swimming including jumping off the tall cliffs at the city's "black rocks." A big part of their quest is educating the public about protecting Lake Superior and why the largest of the Great Lakes is so important.. The trek takes them through the Canada and the United States including Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Averaging 25 miles a day - with their longest day was about 40 miles. They encountered water temperatures as low as 38 degrees, fog outside of Marquette, rough waves outside of Houghton, Michigan that prevent them from rounding the tip of the Keweenaw Peninsula - and instead cut through the Keweenaw Waterway. Thanks to Down Wind Sports in Marquette, Brian picked up a new kayak because of problems with the one used during the first part of their trek.
