About Courses/Workshops
In the early days of Maine guides if they needed something they didn’t buy it from LL Bean – they went out in the woods and made it.
In the early days of Maine guides if they needed something they didn’t buy it from LL Bean – they went out in the woods and made it.
We are trying to honor that tradition by making as much of our own gear as possible. Our courses in wood canvas canoe building, dog sled construction, paddle making, etc demonstrate our commitment to the craftsmanship of Maine guides.
We also regularly offer Wilderness First Aid and Open recert courses as we believe it is our professional responsibility as wilderness guides to keep first aid training current.
A dog sled trip had been on my bucket list and we were thrilled to join Polly and Kevin on one of the colder nights in February! We came away being so impressed with their chosen way of living the outdoor life and handling their beloved dogs with such thoughtfulness and kindness. An outdoor enthusiast brother of mine said you will have a grand trip with Polly and Kevin, they are the real deal. For anyone wishing for a winter wilderness experience, you cannot go wrong with Mahoosuc Guide Service.
