Hello,
I have already posted this at another forum, but I would like to extend my invitation to you folks as well!
I would like to invite you folks to a wilderness canoe trip on the Teslin & Yukon Rivers in Canada's Yukon Territory from June 12-22, 2016.
This trip is supposed to be an opportunity to not only travel through this amazing boreal wilderness by boat, but to meet other bushcraft enthusiasts and learn from each other. The idea is that every participants holds two mini-workshops or instructions over the duration of the trip. In the preparation of the trip we would have to coordinate this a little, so we don't end up doing all the same.
As a licensed and registered wilderness guide and instructor in the Yukon I have the logistics and the gear required for the trip and all canoes, paddle gear, cooking stuff, etc. This all is accessible for this trip free of charge! The costs for food and transfers will have to be shared equally between all participants. From my experience CA$200 for food should be plenty and for transfers to the put-in and take-out we should factor in another CA$350 per person (this will vary greatly with the actual numbers of participants...more is cheaper).
To keep costs as low as possible all participants are welcome to camp on our property a few nights before and after the trip (but we are 40 miles away from Whitehorse...). I am happy to pick you up at the airport in Whitehorse, but if you want to be mobile while camping at our place, you may want to consider a rental vehicle. The cost for travelling to the Yukon is on you, of course. Whitehorse, YT has a pretty good connection from major airports in Canada such as Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Kamloops, Ottawa and direct flights from Frankfurt/Main, Germany.
If you have any questions, please post here and we can discuss in public. If you are committed and want to come, please PM.
The number is limited to 10 participants total.
Please note: This is not a course, but a meeting between interested bushcraft enthusiasts. Participants need to have some bushcraft experience, so others can learn from them. I may run this through my business for insurance purpose and participants need to sign a waiver and a medical form. This is NOT a commercial offer. I make no money with it and we will share any costs equally.
Cheers,
Fabian
