Peta was amazing when it came to having alternative routes to experience the wilderness when the BWCA closed for fires. Her knowledge of the SNF and Ely area made our last minute travel pivots so much fun! We were lucky enough to make our way into the BWCA to experience all her glory. Peta is knowledgeable in all aspects of camping, paddling, nature, and is a wonderful teacher. She was so much fun to be with and the food is to die for. I highly recommend having multiple venison bacon add-ons!! Whether it’s your first or fiftieth time out in the BWCA, you will definitely want to make the trip with WWD and Peta.
