NOT EVERY GUIDE DOES EVERY KIND OF GUIDING...
...although it seems some do, and do it well. Generally, though, one who only hunts bear with beagles may tell you he doesn't do canoeing. Someone else guides ice climbing expeditions and admits she's not one for insect hunting.

Damn Yankee isn't the one to go to for some things, either. (See below.)

We invite you to try us for activities such as the following:
2wheels

RECREATION
rock hounding, fossil hunting for brachiopods
outdoor photography
insect hunting (entomology)
flora and fauna
remote natural wonders
remote historical sites
canoeing, kayaking, boating
primitive camping (tenting, etc.)
“luxury” camping (lakeside cottage with conveniences)
hiking with a naturalist
trail riding (with the help of a friend's stable)

HUNTING (with proper licenses)
deer, moose, turkey, ruffed grouse, ducks

SHOOTING
firearm familiarization (different types of guns)
firearm/hunting safety
target practice

FISHING
lake or river
boat/canoe or shore
fly or lure

If you're not familiar with most wilderness pursuits, consider combining a number of the above activities into a trip you design for yourself. Combine some canoeing or boating with some fossil hunting and outdoor photography, add some fishing and finish off with some target practice using a variety of firearms. For more ideas, see design your own trip.

NOT OUR FORTÉ
most wintertime pursuits (guiding anyway)
swift water canoeing or whitewater rafting
trapping
bear hunting
flying
