Podcast Episode - Independent Boundary Waters Trek

In this episode we explore setting up an independent Boundary Waters trip for your unit. Podcast episode originally debuted on September 20, 2021

The Boundary Waters is an awesome place to take Scouts and an excellent way to get off the net. Canoeing through the Minnesota wilderness is a classic trip. If you think it's too difficult, think again.

Our guest this time is Jon Jonas. Jon is the High Adventure Chair for the Greater St. Louis Area Council as well as a Wilderness First Aid Instructor, High Adventure for Troop 94 in O'Fallon, IL, as well as a bunch of other things. He's the go to person on High Adventure in our area and we bring his expertise to our listeners.

Jon has been to the Boundary Waters many times with his unit. He has a great perspective and shares a step by step of how to do your own Boundary Waters trip. The episode is a little longer than normal, but there is a lot of great information packed into this podcast.
