Adventure sports changed his life. The Race to the Midnight Sun nearly ended it.

Upside Down in the Yukon River is an inspiring true story of an ordinary guy from Iowa who attempts the world's longest kayak race, and ends up fighting for his very survival deep in the wilderness of Canada's Yukon Territory. Full of anticipation and fear, successes and failures, doubt and hope, Steve's story challenges each one of us to live every precious moment to the fullest, and reminds us all that our only real failure is a step never taken in pursuit of our dream.
