Erin, I expect that you have had a report about our trip from Emy and Noemie. I hope they enjoyed themselves as much as we did. They were superb guides who worked nonstop to make our family trip memorable. They were diplomatic and not intimidated by our group which included some experienced outdoor enthusiasts. Brenda and I have paddled the Dumoine 4x’s before going back 43 years!. Not easy to please everyone all the time and maintain discipline with a group notorious for individualism. The analogy to herding cats would not do credit to their skills to lead while gently but firmly set standards. It didn’t take long for them to win over the family. Not every day that a guide has the challenge of managing very small children with older grandparents, one of whom was hardly able to walk just a few weeks before. Hats off to them and to their employers' staff selection and training. The arrangements and cuisine were also flawless and memorable. The last comment from my son today at YYZ was ‘best visit home ever”! That is saying something.  Thank  you and hope to travel with MHO again....

While I’m really looking forward to sleeping in my clean, comfy bed (especially with the storm on the horizon....had to work thru some PTSD on that), I would be lying if I said we are not feeling a bit homesick for another night in the woods with you all. We spent a large chunk of our drive home reminiscing about what a fantastic week that was....

Just wanted to thank you again for an amazing trip. I speak for all of us when we say we had the time of our lives on the Missinaibi. Our MHO guides are responsible for this. Not only were they great guides in every sense of the word, but they were first class chefs, amazing teachers, and tons of fun to be around. Every one of us has said how much we miss them since finishing the trip....

The highlight of the trip was the make-up of the group. I felt very lucky to have had a group that got along very well. I also was very impressed with the organization, equipment, and preparedness of the company. In terms of equipment, I came on the trip wondering if your canoes and tents would be very good. They were; I would advertise that if I were you....

Both guides were very passionate about the wilderness and about making the trip enjoyable for all of us. They were clearly knowledgeable about all aspects of the trip and executed everything to a tee...the leadership, the training of the clients, attention to safety measure, food preparation and respect for and care of the environment....

At the top of my list of things to celebrate this year was our magical escape to the beautiful Missinaibi & the joys of great friendships, old and new.
