Canoe & Wilderness Camp

While the feminist in me thinks that this is strange to exclude women from this adventure, it does seem like quite the bargain.

From the Green Bay Area United Way's Community Connections....
 
Canoe & Wilderness Camp - Opportunity for Men

The Wisconsin Chapter of Sierra Club offers trips into the International Boundary Waters Wilderness Area including Quetico Provincial Park.

Ontario Canada's Quetico Provincial Park offers one of the world's truly unique and premier canoeing experiences.  Share your spirit of adventure and love of nature’s wonders with new friends by paddling, portaging and camping in this pristine wilderness.  Expect to see wildlife that voyageurs, trappers and ancient Ojibway saw as you travel the same waterways they traversed centuries ago.  Learn the history of how this storied wilderness came to be as you revel in its clear, drinkable waters, star-lit skies and deafening silence.  Layover days planned for swimming, photography, fishing, hiking, exploring or just plain relaxing.

No experience is required, but you will find a good attitude and physical fitness essential.
