 Team Kruger, in the bogs of MN. The bogs are difficult to go through because there are multiple paths to take, and the most obvious one is not always the correct one. All teams made it through the bogs safely. |
Palisade, MN - the water town depicts an earlier time for Verlen Kruger and Valerie Fons, when they set a world record on the Mississippi River in 1984. |
