Adam Shoalts' expedition to explore the world's third largest wetland has been sponsored by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, learn more here:

Adam Shoalts, B.A., M.A., is a Canadian explorer, naturalist, and woodsman. He compliments these activities with work as a writer, author, and historian. Being an explorer in the 21st century is hard work: with all the great rivers, mountain ranges, and land masses long since discovered or explored, Shoalts confines himself to more obscure prizes. On his expeditions, he explores remote areas of the Canadian wilderness that no known expeditions have previously explored, and that have never been mapped from on the ground or explored by non-aboriginals before. These are highly remote wilderness areas where many of the landmarks and waterways remain unnamed. He has been the first person to document various nameless rivers and creeks in the Hudson Bay watershed and to publish written descriptions, books, photographs and video footage of these wilderness lands. The Royal Canadian Geographical Society endorsed and sponsored Shoalts' expedition to the Hudson Bay Lowlands in 2011.

When not on major expeditions, he frequently undertakes smaller adventures, and is a regular newspaper columnist, award-winning environmentalist, author, and historian working towards his Ph.D, specializing in explorers. He is currently focused on researching the history of sasquatch sightings and reports in the journals of early explorers and writing for Canadian Geographic. 

Other exploring work Shoalts undertakes includes searching for rare species of flora and fauna, and doing "history with his boots on."
