Courtney grew up attending a summer camp in Saskatchewan, where her love of canoe tripping first began. Those early experiences sparked a lifelong passion for the outdoors and adventure. Inspired by that passion, she pursued a diploma in Adventure Studies at Thompson Rivers University. During the winter months, Courtney lives in Golden, BC, where she works as a dispatcher for a heli-skiing company. She is excited to spend another summer in the North, exploring new places and sharing her love of canoe tripping with others!
