The following list may help with packing decisions for visitors to the Retreat Centre and participants in Canoe Outings. Prepare for weather that could be wet, sunny, cold, or warm. Medium to Heavy fleece is appropriate for cool evenings.
Silk offers excellent protection and is also lightweight.
Wool socks are economical and much warmer than cotton, wet or dry. If participating in a wilderness canoe trip, the above items will be redistributed into camping packs prior to trip departure along with group equipment and food. Food, camping gear, canoes, kayaks, paddles, pfd's, mountain bikes and other equipment is provided by the Edge for the exclusive use of our guests. If you have your own sleeping bag, we'd suggest you bring it, however we can provide you with a sleeping bag if required. Keep in mind that clothing worn into wilderness often becomes stained, torn, burnt, or extremely dirty.
