YES, but what should I pack?!

If you’ve ever dreamed of adventuring into the wilderness, you may have read about the four essentials of wilderness survival: food, water, shelter, and fire. But those four things are the bare minimum. What if you don’t want to JUST survive, but THRIVE in the wilderness?

We’ve created a gear list specifically for canoe trips that goes well beyond the four essentials, and maybe even beyond what you actually need to thrive in the wilderness. But this can help you starting thinking of the things you might need to buy or rent and pack for your trip.
