In 1996 Steven Faulkner came to realize he lost touch with his teenage son. What better way to slow things down and bring them closer together than to take a two-month canoe trip. They followed the route first taken in 1673 by the early French explorers Joliet and Marquette to discover the Upper Mississippi River- 300 miles along Lake Michigan's Upper Peninsula, 300 miles across the entire state of Wisconsin, first up the storm-flooded Fox River and then down the Wisconsin River. Finally they turned south on the Mississippi River and floated down the Big Muddy 400 miles to St. Louis.
