Virtual Speakers Series with Katina Daanen


Don’t forget to join us this Thursday at 7 pm for the next installment in our Virtual Speakers Series: “Books, Blogs and Videos: Resources That Inspire Adventure on the NFCT,” with Katina Daanen.

Join Katina as she discusses and reveals insights of both known and hidden resources available to prospective NFCT through-paddlers. You’ll learn about a new FarOut app in the works and updates being made to her guidebook. Participants will also be invited to share any resources they have found useful.

Katina completed a second through-paddle of the NFCT this past summer and is the author of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail Through-Paddler’s Companion guidebook.
