This canoe trip is designed for beginners, but is suitable for all abilities. You will paddle with a partner for 2 to 6 kilometres each day, taking approximately 2-4 hours. We will move at a relaxed pace, taking breaks along the way. We will be portaging from lake to lake as a team, you will be properly coached on how to lift with assistance and carry gear. Don't worry about feeling unable to do this, portages will only be a few hundred metres. As long as you can carry a packed suitcase, you will be able to confidently carry gear across a portage. We will use featherweight canoes from Algonquin Outfitters, 16’ prospector canoes made of kevlar weighing only 40 pounds. Portaging is a very satisfying mode of travel to feel self sufficient and move like the early explorers of Canada.

• Featherweight carbon/Kevlar canoe (40 lbs) • bent shaft or traditional hardwood paddle • deluxe P.F.D (life jacket) • expedition canoe packs • self-inflating Therm-a-Rest sleeping pad • backpack stove with fuel • cookware and utensils • camp fire grill • insect repellent • flashlight • stuff sacks • premium lightweight tent • three-season sleeping bag and liner • 1 litre water bottle • padded folding camp chairs • lightweight tarp • rain poncho
