Elijah Greiner Elijah was born and raised in Chicago’s South Loop. Welcomed into the outdoor-recreation-world through Scouting and the Sewanee Outing Program, he has worked as an outdoor professional in Minnesota, Tennessee, Vermont, and New Mexico (Including two summers and two winters in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area). In addition to canoeing, Elijah loves distance running, reading, writing, cartooning, storytelling, deep ecology, americana mythology, and making YouTube videos with his brother Colin. Josh Lambert Josh grew up in Olmsted Falls, Ohio, just 20 minutes outside of Cleveland. Always outside, he quickly developed a love for nature by catching frogs in the pond, walking the river behind his home, and visiting his mom who worked at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. He has worked three summers and three winters guiding in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. Between seasons there, he attended Cleveland State University and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Sciences. Eager to explore and understand the world around him, he is always seeking the next adventure. Jackie McDougall Jackie hails from a small town in Northern Connecticut called East Granby, about 20 minutes from Massachusetts. Throughout the past years, Jackie has educated guests at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, led canoe expeditions into the Boundary Waters, graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a Biology degree, built and maintained trails for the Southeast Conservation Corps and Philmont Scout Ranch, and guided dog sled treks in the frigid Superior National Forest’s winter. In addition to her love for the outdoors and spending time in the wilderness, Jackie is passionate about music, and was a Tuba player in her college’s Marching Band, the UMMB.

How to Plan a Summer-Long Trip (in Six Months)
Killarney - Clarion Hotel Sat 10:30am-11:15am
Voyageur - Clarion Hotel Sat 2:30pm-3:15pm
Learn how to plan a 12-week trip in only six months. The Vagabond Voyageurs did just that. Before their 84-day, 1200-mile Canadian tour last summer, none of these six friends had done a canoe trip longer than 14 days. Frequent collaboration through the winter and spring turned a dream trip into a reality. The Far North calls! Will you push the adventure back another summer, or answer the call now?
