We are looking forward to working with bio-regional herbalist, ethnobotanist, and forager Crystal Brown, of Inspired North to offer a camping trip this fall focused on the exciting opportunity to learn techniques for field identification and uses of both edible and medicinal plants and fungi of Wisconsin and the Lake Superior Region.

Your own personal cottage in the forest at Whitecap Kayak Learning Center, a base camp for local kayak guiding and instruction. During the kayak season, our guides stay here. In the off season, we can share it with new friends.

You will find a cozy and warm spot in the forest. Expect a small walk to the bathrooms, showers, and running water. You can snowshoe around the property, ski at many local trails or Mt Ashwabay, and enjoy life in the beautiful Washburn and Bayfield area

Hermit Island Circumnavigation! The Excelsior Brownstone Quarry was operational on the island from 1891 - 1897. These blocks were bound for Chicago but never made it off the island due to financial and logistical hurdles.

A great day and crew out at Sand Island yesterday! Our longest day trip at 11 miles paddled, but worth it. ☀️ If you give it all you’ve got, you can not regret it.

Loving this water clarity lately! ☀️
