This two day kayak camping course to Grand Island on Lake Superior is designed for paddlers who want to build real world trip planning and leadership skills in a dynamic Great Lakes environment. This is not a guided tour. Students actively participate in planning, decision making, and on water leadership throughout the course.

Food, gear and provisions are on your own. If you need a boat or paddling gear, we can arrange that.

Once on the island, time is spent refining paddling skills, exploring appropriate shoreline routes, and practicing leadership scenarios before returning to camp. Instruction continues throughout the second day with additional paddling, skill refinement, and the return crossing.
