Adventure Trips
Annual Wilderness Canoe Trip
For over 30 years, canoes have been the means of transportation in the vast wilderness known as Quetico-Superior Park, a region composed of numerous interlocking lakes on the borders of Northern Minnesota and Southern Canada. Centuries ago, Indians traveled these endless waterways in birch-bark canoes.
The canoe became a freighter to carry furs and supplies for the happy voyagers who were experts at running the highways of streams, lakes, and rivers 10 days, many adventurers still paddle these vast lakes now known by a different name, the Boundary Water Canoe Area Wilderness. (BWCAW) To us, we like to call it the North Woods!
Every year, we take a group of participants to experience this amazing unplugged wilderness for themselves
