“But love of the wilderness is more than a hunger for what is always beyond reach; it is also an expression of loyalty to the earth which bore us and sustains us, the only home we shall ever know, the only paradise we ever need – if only we had eyes to see.”
Our tripping program inherently promotes leadership, personal growth, and confidence. However, we recognize select participants and future guides are looking for formal training, certifications, and diverse experiences that build strong resumes.
The Leadership Education and Adventure Program (LEAP) is a combination of formal staff training and recognized professional certifications at our Temagami base camp, a remote 4-week canoe trip, and direct hands on guiding experience in an internship role with increased responsibility. Together, it is an impressive mix that fosters leaders and equips participants with the necessary skills and confidence to tackle challenges and excel in future endeavors.
