MHO Adventures is dedicated to being a leader in the outdoor industry by offering high-quality river expeditions, educational trips for students, and customized adventure experiences. We also collaborate with other professionals to deliver comprehensive training for those who create memorable, safe, and educational outdoor experiences for others.

In 2021, we launched the River Roots Program, a 42-day full-immersion guide training program focused on whitewater canoeing. As a Licensed Training Provider with Wilderness Medical Associates International, we offer all levels of Wilderness Medical Training. Additionally, we’ve developed our own Expedition Food Training Course and deliver ORCKA and Paddle Canada certifications in various disciplines, including flat water, moving water, and canoe tripping.

In recent years, we’ve partnered with a growing number of summer camps and organizations to design and deliver custom Workshops tailored to their needs.

With over 35 years of experience leading backcountry trips, we are passionate about giving people the opportunity to connect with the wilderness. These courses are one of the many ways we share that passion and pass on our expertise.
