Kayakers Make First Descent of Massive Gorge

Kayakers Ben Stookesbury, Chris Korbulic, Pedro Oliva and Ben Marr take on a never-before explored gorge on the island of New Britain, and despite its familiar-sounding name, it’s nowhere near its namesake. The island sits off the east coast of Papa New Guinea in the South Pacific.
