Before we blog on, lets put a few faces to the Ridge Wilderness name.
Meet Dave, creator and chief executive of Ridge Wilderness Adventures. He is recognized by the canoe industry as a master instructor and lead developer of canoeing programs in Canada. He’s kind of a big deal :)
To be more precise, Dave’s simply crazy about canoeing and seeing him maneuver a boat is like watching a champion figure skater glide. If learning canoeing from him you will notice, he breaks down canoe skills to there absolute essence - fun!
Meet Gareth - lead guide at Ridge Wilderness Adventures - known for getting creative with a canoe. For example, his repertoire of "canoe tricks" includes jumping a canoe over another canoe, like a horse over a hurdle. As a stand-up paddleboard instructor the tricks continue and a session with Gareth involves seeing these tricks, and seeing Gareth falling into the water! Nonetheless, his love of the outdoors and having tonnes of fun outside is contagious.
Meet Beth, practicum student extraordinaire– aka Practi. She learned at a young age that she was clumsy on land, and thus decided to pursue a life on the water. Her dream is for all streets to be replaced with canals so she can finally get to the grocery store without fear of falling. Learning the ropes at Ridge Wilderness is bringing her one step closer towards her dreams!
Together, we hope to reach new heights (and not fall out of the darn tree) !
