If you feel confident paddling
on placid water, but would like to embark on more
challenging journeys, including rapid rivers or
open water, this course is for you. We will cover strategies for
paddling open canoes on rapid and open water, and
alternative methods of canoe propulsion; lining,
tracking and poling. We will discuss various
methods of packing and stowing your expedition
equipment, and you will be given the opportunity to
be involved in trip planning and
navigation. For these
courses, you need to be able to control a canoe or
kayak on placid water and be comfortable in a
capsize situation. If you do not have prior
experience, one of
