Dan Culver Summits Everest in 1990...Dedicates his Climb to the Khutzeymateen Valley

I was recently going through some old files in the Bluewater office, when I came across this incredible photo of Dan Culver, the founder of Bluewater Adventures. In 1990 Dan became the 5th Canadian, and first British Columbian, to summit Mt. Everest, dedicating that ascent to the Khutzeymateen and Tsitika valleys, then in danger of being logged. Dan knew he was not going to be on this planet forever, but hoped that such places as the Khutzeymateen would be.

On June 23-29 2010, come with Bluewater Adventures on its First Annual trip into the Khutzeymateen Valley and see first had why Dan and so many others see this as a very special place in British Columbia.
