FEES FOR 2010
Printable
Fee Schedule
Wilderness Wind's desire is to make wilderness travel available to
everyone. Fees are set to cover a percentage of program expenses. All
staff time is donated on a voluntary service basis. Work for Wilderness
Wind is done out of a love for the outdoors and a belief in service.
Another way of keeping our fees low is that we ask each group to help
clean their gear at the end of their trip.
* Each trip starts with a day of orientation
prior to the canoe trip. Orientation is usually a full day that
includes worship, canoeing instruction, reading map and compass, food
packing, route planning, packing, wilderness ethics and wilderness
experiences. The fees below are listed according to the number of days
of the actual canoe trip. Orientation is included in these fees.
