Our Moose Ponds trip provides the complete exploration of the Nahanni River. Participants will be thrilled with the whitewater of the Rock Gardens, stunning mountain scenery and the splendors of Nahanni National Park. Special attention will be given to the development of moving water canoe skills and the process of an extended canoe expedition.
Participants should be prepared for three weeks of wilderness camping which will require you to be in good health, reasonably physically fit and a confident swimmer. You should be able to assist with portaging your own and group gear around Virginia Falls. Your moving water paddling skills should be at an intermediate to advanced level. You will be required to read moving water, work with a partner to perform eddy turns, front and back ferries and braces through Gr. 2-3 whitewater. On the trip, our guides are excellent instructors and are able to assist you to further develop your skills. Pre-trip training and practice is essential. You may wish to discuss your readiness with us.
