  Dean Juntunen



Dean Juntunen is an avid kayaker from the Western UP who suffered a spinal cord injury in 1991. As an able-bodied person, he loved hiking in the wilderness, and as a paraplegic he took up kayaking as a way to get out into the wild places. He refers to kayaking as Liquid Freedom, and in September of 2023 he completed a lifelong goal to paddle all around Lake Superior.
