Expedition Squagua
June 2023 - December 2024
Summary
Squamish to Aconcagua = Squagua
Biking, running and kayaking from Squamish, BC, Canada to the summit of the tallest mountain in South America - Mt. Aconcagua.
Outdoor Adventurers Club Founder Mark Sky will complete this mission using 100% human-power: biking, walking, running & kayaking 22,000-24,000km, through 15 countries and climbing the highest mountain in every country he passes through.
This adventurer is risk everything for one of the most insane and ambitious adventures with the main goal of inspiring a generation of humans to chase their wildest dreams and raising $24,000 for a 'water' related project to help a community in Central or South America.

Is this even possible?
​
Maybe.
Mark will kayak through unpredictable waters, islands that may be inhabited by the indigenous Guna people, other islands that are uninhabited and… well he doesn't know… after all, this is the adventure of a lifetime, not a ‘trip’.
"Contrary to what most people think, there are no roads connecting Panama to Colombia - otherwise, that would be an easier option"
