How long does it take to travel 2400 miles by canoe?
People who have done it report, surprisingly, that it has a lot to do with how many people are paddling, and how fast. Just to grab a number out of the air ... let's say you can cover 5 miles in an hour. At that rate, it takes 2400 / 5 = 480 hours of solid paddling. Now, let's say you paddle for 3 hours and take a 1/2-hour break, and you keep that up for 10 hours a day. With that kind of routine, it would take you about 53 daysto cover the 2400 miles ... if you never run into rain, ticks, wind or current in the wrong direction, or bears.
