The Rivershed Society of B.C. is offering a three-week trip spanning the length of the Fraser River.
From August 1 to 25, participants journey 1,400 kilometers by canoe, raft, van and on foot from the Fraser's headwaters near Valemount to where it meets the shores of Vancouver.
It's open to those interested in "sustainability issues," and seeking to "build on your talents, and gain the skills and confidence you need to make a difference in your community."
Participants will be urged to pursue "sustainability projects" upon return to their respective communities.
"You will travel through 'off-the-beaten-track 'parts of BC, accompanied by skilled facilitators and guides, who interpret the geography, biology and history of the landscape," the society said in a press release. "You will learn from and be inspired by RSBC's extensive network of First Nation and non-native community leaders that you meet as you pass through their communities."
Participants must also be 19 years of age or older and physically fit. Community volunteer experience is an asset. The application deadline is May 31.
