Flatwater

The focus of the trip is the enjoyment of the land, not covering great distances. This is a self-organized and co-led trip. Each participant is expected to contribute to the organization and the leadership of the trip. You must be able to carry all your packs and you must be able to portage a canoe (unless you are paddling just Great Slave Lake). The exact route will be created based on the skills and interests of participants. You can join for one or more parts of the trip. I am 58 years old and welcome travelling with people of various ages.
