Our outfitter is responsible for making sure clients have the information and equipment they need for a successful canoe trip.

Outfitting is a details game, from the macro (our ever-evolving reservation schedule) to the micro (number of tent pegs in a bag). A great outfitter always knows what’s coming down the pike and stays several steps ahead. They are aware of upcoming reservations, reservation changes, inventory levels, maintenance needs, and can organize their time effectively. They use procedures and systems to ensure a composed work environment and consistent client experiences. To round it out, they are clear and friendly communicators.

In our experience, the most effective outfitters are natural list-makers/schedulers who enjoy working independently within a supportive framework. They are outdoorsy and physically fit—able to carry canoes and be on their feet much of the day. Of course, canoe tripping experience is an asset.
