We are a small start-up company building a ‘links-based’ web portal for canoe enthusiasts in North America. The web site will provide information on canoeing destinations, linking users immediately to travel services, allowing users to rapidly research canoe tripping and wilderness camping related gear, and links to product manufacturers.

Our plan is for the site to become a vibrant and popular online community seeking out passionate like-minded canoeing enthusiasts. We’d like to hear from you–where you’ve paddled and about your trip. Tell us about your gear–was it great or did you trash it? Send us a trip log, a favorite journal to share, or take advantage of our photo gallery to post that perfect photo/gallery.

Visit the site as often as you can. Explore the Destination Guide, shop the Canoe and Gear Guides, tell a friend, and, tell us what we can do to improve the web site for your next visit.

We are starting this Canoeing.com journey as a small group of professionals–graphic designers, writer, photographers and programmers; all enthusiastic about being outdoors–paddling a canoe, watching a bird, venturing to a new destination, cooking over an open fire, and staying on top of the newest gear. And, we’re enthusiastic about sharing those experiences. Contact us if you would like to become a contributor.

Check back from time to time, we plan to post a quarterly update on our progress to become the Ultimate Guide for you.
