​Untethered Adventures 

WILDERNESS CANOE TRIP 
​
GENERAL INFORMATION

Dear Participant/Parent:
Your child has displayed an interest in our summer wilderness canoe trip program for adventurous young people, ages 14-20. Untethered Adventures has a 50 year tradition of guiding high school students in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA). This canoe trip provides the students with the opportunity to explore some of the most beautiful wild country in North America. The BWCA has tens of thousands of cool freshwater lakes that afford almost more water than land. For years, students have met the challenge of this rugged and adventurous landscape: fishing, swimming in clear clean lakes, observing and photographing wildlife in their natural habitat, and exploring backcountry lakes and rivers. This trip will depart on Sunday, June 4th and will return on Sunday, June 11th 2023.

The following is an introduction to our program and its inclusions.

• Round trip ground transportation to and from Ely, Minnesota.
• All lodging on the trip to and from Ely, Minnesota.
• Complete canoe outfitting for the 5-day wilderness trip including canoes, paddles, life jackets, packs, tents, cooking equipment, etc. The student need only provide their sleeping bag, sleeping pad, clothing, and personal items. However, we do offer rental sleeping bags and sleeping pads (please check the box at the bottom of the application if you are interested in renting from us)
• All meals while at base camp.
• Three nutritionally balanced meals for each day of the expedition. Combinations of fresh, freeze dried, and dehydrated foods make for meals that are delicious yet lightweight and easy to prepare.
• Experienced wilderness facilitators with more than 60 years of combined experience. The total cost of the complete trip package is $1300.00 (please inquire about discounted rate). Registration will be strictly on a first come, first served basis. Untethered Adventures reserves the right to refuse any application. A registration fee of $350.00 is required with the application. We would be happy to entertain your questions personally by calling Kyle at (937) 321-6920 or Scott at (937) 901-7565 or emailing us at UntetheredAdventuresLLC@gmail.com.  To learn more please visit our website, www.Adventuresuntethered.com or Instagram page @untethered_adventures_

​Scott Knupp and Kyle Cox Co-Owners and Guides
