Keeping the outdoors fun

  • CookingThe best part to kayaking and backpacking is going where few people have been, making camp to eat, and talk about past and future adventures. In the future we will add our favorite recipes, what to eat on the water, how to cook, packing a feast, and how food can woo your spouse.
  • On the WaterSometimes we tend to focus just on the water; the reality is water is the tie that binds us and the confusion is what vehicle you use to find your happy place. Wind power, to human power, to engine power, the choices are as bountiful and beautiful as the stars in the Milky Way.

  • In the WoodsAs many of our friends know Sean and Jeff always have a blast talking at festivals. Unfortunately, not everyone is able to visit festivals; We offered our paddling, and bushcraft friends a taste of fun by with overnight campouts that expanded on the skills discussed at our weekday evening Lecture Series.
  • ExpeditionsAn expedition is a journey or excursion undertaken for a specific purpose. There is no distance or time restriction to an expedition. An “expedition” if it was undertaken for a specific purpose will broaden the imagination of adventurers, explorers, and scientists. We are here to help you create your own expeditions

  • Stuck InsideSometime the enviornment we love to play in is too dangerous for us to venture into. Other times we are healing from an injury. Or we have obligations that keep us inside. We have ideas to help you escape into the wilderness while you are stuck inside
