About Us:
- Brandon and Heather Nelson
- are “way-of-life” surfski & ultra-marathon distance kayak racers and adventurers. Both are published writers and photographers. To date, their resume includes overall wins and course records in the 316-mile WaterTribe Lake Michigan Challenge and in the 460-mile Yukon River Quest. Expeditions include “Canada to Cabo” -- a 4300-mile mountain bike and sea kayak journey along the Continenal Divide and the Sea of Cortez, and a 71-day kayak circumnavigation of Lake Baikal in Siberia. In early May, 2006, the pair organized "Project KayakForCare!" to raise money for non-profit hospice care while attempting to break the 24-hour flat water distance record. With Heather leading the event organization, Brandon paddled 146 miles in 24 hours on Lake Whatcom, WA, and raised over $14,000 for Whatcom Hospice Foundation. Their latest adventure, baby boy Hayden Storm, was born Feb 21, 2008.

Oh my goodness! Baja took your baby and gave you a boy!
Enjoy your time and be safe. You've surely heard what your hometown looks/feels like right now. It is magical in its own way, but Baja is looking grand!
