Documenting a Guinness World Record attempt

The Guinness World Record for the fastest time to paddle a canoe down the Mississippi River has been broken!

On May 10th, 2023 Scott Miller, Judson Steinback, Paul Cox, and Wally Werderich paddled out from the headwaters of the Mississippi River at Lake Itasca, MN in their 4-person canoe. They paddled 24/7 until they reached the Gulf of Mexico. They switched off between paddling and resting to keep the canoe moving all hours of the day and night. When they did come to shore, they rarely stopped for more than 20 minutes. They battled severe sleep deprivation, lock and dams, barge traffic and weather to make it to mile 0 on the Mississippi River.

Wilderness Mindset was there to capture the entire journey and we are producing a feature-length film about it. It was the most intense shoot we have ever been a part of and it was an honor to work with the entire MSR crew both on and off the water.
