This ambitious & challenging Give Back Adventures expedition will start and finish in the small Sierra Foothill community of Jackson, California and will follow the Mokelumne River from the mountain peaks forming its headwaters all the way through to the Pacific Ocean at Baker Beach in San Francisco, CA.

Multiple human powered sports will be utilized including Bikepacking, Mtn. Climbing (10 peaks), Backpacking, Whitewater Kayaking, Canyoneering, Whitewater Rafting and Sea Kayaking. After reaching San Francisco it will be back on bikes across the Golden Gate & Richmond-San Rafael bridges and through the Oakland hills before continuing on using both paved & unpaved roads to the finish in Jackson, CA.

The expedition will be full of challenges, but will also give the opportunity to appreciate the beauty and splendor of the Sierra Nevada mountains, as well as the changing riparian zones on the continued journey to San Francisco.

In addition, this expedition will also be raising funds for the non-profit Foothill Conservancy serving Amador & Calaveras counties, including neighboring regional areas. Foothill Conservancy's mission is: "To protect, restore, and sustain the natural and human environment in Amador and Calaveras counties for the benefit of current and future generations." One of their main priorities is the Watershed Program that focuses on nature, community, and economy in the area's watersheds.
