We start with detailed individual trip planning and
routing. Then we will review your gear and food lists as we have pre-packed
for your party. For those units spending the night before their trip with us
in our bunk rooms, we will have a pre-trip continental breakfast the
following morning.
Your food and equipment packs will include:
A large selection of menu items. We feature both RICHMOOR and
BACKPACKER’S PANTRY freeze dried foods. Next, we make many additions to
provide quality trail tested meals. On the 1st night out on the canoe
trails, we even include ½ pound Certified Angus Beef™ steaks or
two 5-ounce angus burgers, with fresh hash brown potatoes. Condiments &
cleaning items round out a great food pack!
Ultra-light ALUMACRAFT canoes: the 17-foot "Quetico"
ultra-lightweight model weighs in at only 64 pounds ... the top
choice for the first timer, as well as someone who wants a quality canoe
with a straight tracking center keel, or a stable fishing platform to cast
from. (These aren't the 85 pound scout camp version). We then add STEARNS
jacket-style (not "horse collar") life vests for all participants. Rounding
out the watercraft, we add ultra-light aluminum shaft / cycolac blade
paddles.
SLUMBERJACK sleeping bags with DuPont's Hollofil II fiber. Caprolan
ripstop nylon is used for both the cover and the lining. The fill
construction utilizes an offset, double layer method which produces maximum
loft at a minimum of weight. These lightly nylon tapered bags are warm to 30
degrees. For our customers who are over 6' or of a stocky build, we have
extra-long rectangular bags ... just let us know when reserving!
THERM-A-REST air/foam sleeping pads for everyone: adult leaders and
the boys alike.
MIRRO ultra-lightweight cookkits, complete kitchen utensils, cleaning
supplies, along with rope to hang each of your food packs at night. Personal
eating supplies such as knife/fork/spoon, plates, and cups are included.
COLEMAN “Sportster” 1-burner stove. This white gas liquid fuel stove
provides clean heat regardless of the weather or possible fire-ban
situations and is included as a back-up to your normal cooking fire.
Even fuel is included at no additional charge!
Nylon rain fly for dry dining on a rainy evening.
An ultra-light camp saw (SHARP!)
EUREKA's "TIMBERLINE: DELUXE OUTFITTER SERIES" TENTS. We believe,
however, that Eureka's standards for comfort are not up to ours! For this
reason, we never put more than three people in a "Four-Man" tent, nor more
than 4 adults / 5 boys in a "Six-Man" tent.
Custom built KONDOS food and gear packs made to our demanding
specifications.
Protective plastic liners are supplied to keep food and supplies as well as
the sleeping bags dry.
Hot showers after your trip.
Private automobile / van parking at our base during your trip.
Each travel group of 6 to 9 people receives a $50
credit on any van transportation
to/from any listed BWCA entry/exit points.
