Our fundraiser was a success and we managed to raise $1,800 towards the accessible playground! Thank you so much to everyone who came out for a wonderful (and windy) day on the water! It’s days like today that remind me why I wanted to start these workshops in the first place!

Trying to decide between a guided trip or going on your own? 👀🛶

Here’s the honest breakdown no one really talks about…

A guided trip might feel expensive upfront — but you’re not just paying for the trip. You’re paying for:
✔️ safety
✔️ experience
✔️ logistics handled for you
✔️ and the ability to just show up and enjoy it

Going self-guided?
✔️ more freedom
✔️ more flexibility
✔️ often cheaper on the surface

But also…
❗ more planning
❗ more responsibility
❗ more things you don’t realize you need until you’re out there

There’s no right answer — just what’s right for you and where you’re at.

👉 New to backcountry or heading somewhere remote? Go guided.
👉 Want to build confidence close to home? Try self-guided.

Both paths lead to the same thing: getting outside and proving to yourself you can do hard things 💛

Let’s talk about something we don’t talk about enough 👀👇

Your period in the backcountry isn’t ideal… but it’s also 100% manageable when you know your options.

I’ve tried a few different methods over the years, and here’s the truth:
👉 there’s no one “right” way
👉 it’s all about what feels easiest, cleanest, and least stressful for you

For me? Period underwear has been the simplest, most reliable option — especially on multi-day trips. But every option has pros + cons, and it’s worth figuring out what works best before you’re out there.

Because your period shouldn’t be the thing that keeps you from saying yes to the trip 🛶💛

💬 Tell me — what’s your go-to when you’re camping or in the backcountry?

Backcountry trips don’t have to feel risky… but they do require preparation.

The truth is, a few basic safety habits can make a huge difference in how confident and capable you feel out there.

These are the fundamentals every paddler should know 🛶

What’s one safety habit you never skip?

Let’s be honest… moms don’t stop being moms just because we’re in the backcountry.

We’re still packing snacks, solving problems, and making magic happen — just with a paddle in hand instead of a coffee in the car ☕️🛶

So if you’re going to be out there… you deserve a little luxury too.

These are the items that make a canoe trip feel just a little more comfortable, a little more enjoyable, and a lot more you.

✨ Send it to someone who needs a Mother’s Day hint

And tell me — what’s your non-negotiable luxury item in the backcountry?

We are offering a half-day workshop to help raise funds to build an accessible playground at a school that is local to us. This will be the only workshop that Shari and I (Tori) will lead this year as we have decided to take a bit of a break from running workshops ourselves this season. If you are interested in joining us on the water, head to our website to register. Payments will be accepted via etransfer but registering through our site will secure your spot.

Thank you and I hope to see you on the water! 🛶

Bug season is coming… and if you’ve ever questioned your life choices while being eaten alive in the woods — you’re not alone 😅
