Paddling Lake Titicaca

Talks & demonstrations

Event description

John Lockwood - In 1970s John took a solo kayak trip - 900 miles down the Yukon River in a collapsible Klepper and has been paddling wilderness waters ever since. With an academic and professional background in the high-tech field and desire to build kayaks he created Pygmy kayaks (rated the top kayak kit company by Sea Kayaker magazine for years!) in the mid-1980's with the first computer designed lightweight boat kit. Recently John traveled extensively in southern South America and will talk about his paddling on one of the highest large navigable lakes in the world.
