Your Okanagan Paddling School and Adventure Company Explore your potential, move your body, and connect with the wild places of British Columbia – one of the most beautiful natural places on Earth. Ranging from 3-hr lake canoeing lessons to our unique, multi-day river expeditions in Northern B.C., we have something for every canoeing-related interest. We provide world-class instruction and guiding from certified professionals who are leaders in their field and are passionate about sharing their craft with others.

Overview

Join a group of adventurous folks for Elements Adventure Company’s exploratory first descent down the Jennings River. Described as one of the most remote and undeveloped watersheds in Northern BC, this 180km journey starts in the humble headwaters deep in the Cassiar Mountains, bouncing through many technical rapids, before finally spilling out into the vast expanse of Teslin lake.
How does a 5-km class 2+ rapid sound to you? An 8-km class 2 section? How about 2 dedicated days of hiking in the headwaters? Does facing the many moods on Teslin Lake appeal to you? This canoe expedition is expected to be one of the most diverse trips we’ve offered. It is for whitewater canoeists with solid intermediate to advanced paddling and rescue skills and a keen sense for adventure.

Thank you for such an amazing trip. I still get a huge smile when I tell stories to my friends and family and everybody has commented that I “have a peacefulness about me” that wasn’t there before.
