One of the highlights of the The Boundary Waters Expo is always the Q&A discussion with our panel of experts. We're excited to have it in person again with a great group of panelists. This year our experts include renowned guide Rob Kesselring, 3rd generation owner/opperator of Sawbill Canoe Outfitters Clare Shirley, local guide Sean MacDonell and birch bark canoe builder and outdoorsman Erik Simula.

We'll record the panel and share it on this page, put your questions for our experts in the comments below and we'll try to ask them all!

We're excited to have the Les Voyageurs program at the The Boundary Waters Expo, selling raffle tickets to fund their far north trips.

Les Voyageurs Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Sartell, MN. It is the mission of Les Voyageurs to expand the horizons of young people as it challenges their physical, psychological, and social skills through an intense outdoor experience. The center piece of our program, provides men and women in 10-12th grade with an extensive outdoor leadership opportunity that includes a canoe expedition of 30 days or more into remote regions of Manitoba, Ontario, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut.

Our second year program, Far North, provides longer, more remote opportunities into rivers and routes further north in Canada for participants. This summer’s men and women crews will be holding a raffle drawing to giveaway a NorthStar Northwind 17’ canoe in Starlite with the money going directly toward reducing costs of their trip.
