An epic adventure that may just shift your life
I go because it irons out the wrinkles in my soul. -Sigurd Olson
Leading people into the woods where there are no screens, no communication, no motors. Only us. paddling, creating, being in the magic. The Boundary Waters Canoe Area is a sacred place for me. I have been going up for decades. Every time I'm there, I get completely reset. Letting go of all of the voices, judgments and things I'm ready to let go. It feels like coming home. Now is the time to go back, with you. Are you ready?
Check out what's in the course for 2025.
You have this information for life.
I have some more questions!
I have also opened up hours for you to schedule a 'Discovery Call' with me. Or email me!

A bit about me and why I am so passionate to bring a group into the BWCA
Over 35 years of BWCA experience has taught me so much. I go with 1 year olds and 80 year olds. Folks whom have never paddled before and those that have gone on dozens of trips. The physical, mental, emotional and spiritual challenges that arise, in every trip, stretch me in ways that allow for huge growth in my life. This is expansive and always exactly what is the highest and best for each person. I want everyone to feel this magic that these unique spaces gift us with.
As a former high adventure guide and a current health care practitioner, I take health and safety very seriously. I keep up on CPR, First aid, Wilderness First Aid, Small Craft Water Safety. My experience along with my formal training helps when things go sideways. But that's all part of the adventure. We get to go into the unknown! We will never be able to predict what happens in life and on a trip. That's the beauty of letting go and being in the flow of life. However, we can be prepared.
This is a sacred land. It transcends time and connects us to those whom have traveled the same routes we go. As individuals we bring so much to our group, our own skills, perspective, goals and intentions. Once here we also realize we are a part of the whole. This coming together is so transformative and its what poets and sages write books about. We can all come together to this phenomenal space and hear what is whispered to our soul in the peace and beauty of a sacred land.

Modified Plan (see note)
I really want everyone to go that wants to. I am happy to modify pricing plans to better fit your budget. Let me know if you need a custom one. My price point reflects my costs for all of the permits, fees, taxes, lodging, insurance, yearly trainings I do, paying the support needed (people and satellite rescue) as well as all of the food and gear costs, etc. It is a TRIP OF A LIFETIME. And I'm really proud of the tutorials, videos, master lists as well as the pretrip intentions workbook and gift each of you get.
I have developed this trip from decades of experience as well as listening to everyone that I have brought with me before. I'm going all in. This is ABSOLUTELY a labor of love that I am so grateful I get to put out into the world. I want you on this trip! Let me know if I can create a modified pricing plan for you!
What are People Saying?
"The trip was a beautiful journey of wonderful women joining together to make the adventure work beautifully well. It was like a sisterhood of traveling canoes and a trip i'll never forget and will forever be grateful for the unexpected sisterhood I found in complete strangers. I felt safe and protected with Amy's guidance as her BWCA experience is vast. I still think of the deliciously creative meals she prepared for us. Thank you for including me in this adventure into the backwoods! From the bottom of my heart, it was incredible!"

Go with Amy into the wilderness! It will be enriching, fun, beautiful and do-able, even the challenging parts! She knows how to help make it such a wonderful life-giving experience.

Like a lotus I went into the BWCA last week, off grid and came out in full bloom and strength. Canoeing in, portaging, 20 weeks post left knee meniscus surgery. I hadn’t been to be BWCA since junior year, shortly after my dad became sick. Trip of a lifetime with an amazing group of nine women. We walk the wilderness like a force and I love these people.

I want this! I hear the call of the wild!
“There is magic in the feel of a paddle and the movement of a canoe, a magic compounded of distance, adventure, solitude and peace.” -Sigurd F. Olson
