J.J. Kelley and Josh Thomas paddled two hand-carved wooden Pygmy kayaks 1300 miles from Alaska to Seattle - and made a documentary film along the way to prove it. Their journey through the Inside Passage lasted 3 months and was highlighted by interviews with locals, grizzly bear encounters and lots (and lots) of rain.

The film, Paddle to Seattle, is currently on the film festival route and is getting spectacular reviews so it will most likely enjoy a wide release. Paddler Magazine calls the film "80 minutes of the best feature film about paddling produced in the last decade." Check out the trailer below...
