Canoe Trip Planning

What to Bring

You can pack your canoe trip items well in advance of your trip. Pack a separate small duffle or bag with the clothes and items you may need for travel to and from ‘Canoe Canada’ (i.e. toothbrush, towel, underwear, clothes, travel documents etc.). Remember that we will have waterproof packsacks here in Atikokan for you to pack your canoe trip items in. Keep an eye on a weather website before you leave home. Bring up a long-range outlook so you have an idea of the winds, temps and precipitation you can expect during your trip.

Our family began fly-in outpost trips nearly 30 years ago in order for my father to not spend the entire trip checking in at work. That same reasoning now applies to me and it is priceless to me. Being able to completely disconnect from the pressures and responsibilities of everyday life and spend time being 100% present with my kids allows us to connect more than we ever could without it. We make memories that last a lifetime because in those moments we are all fully present and together.

Every time I contact Canoe Canada Outfitters, I feel like I’m talking with life long friends. If anyone is on the fence between outfitters, you will be hard pressed to find better in my humble opinion.

Quetico and Canoe Canada will always hold a special place in our hearts. And to the people of Canoe Canada…dear friends for life.
