    EQUIPMENT

    Equipment provided by the Adventure Tourism Program

    The Adventure Tourism program is proud to supply students with new, brand
    name equipment to help them meet the challenges of the outdoor environment.
    We recognize that quality outdoor equipment can be very expensive, that is why
    we provide the majority of equipment (both group and personal) for our
    students. The following is just a sample of some things available to our
    students:

     Sea kayaks (solo and tandem) and equipment (pfd`s, helmets, spray
    skirts, paddles, paddle floats, bilge pumps, tow lines, compass, dry bags)
     Whitewater canoes and equipment (pfd’s, helmets, paddles, throw bags,
    self bailer, dry barrels, floatation bags)

    bivouacs, 4-season tents, group tarps, backcountry stoves and cooking

    As you can see, the majority of equipment is provided for you … and this is just

    There are also options to buy quality used gear from Mountain Equipment
    Coop’s Gear Swap website.
    *Clothing: Please don't wear any cotton clothing for your expeditions! Wool,
    polypropylene or other synthetic materials are going to keep you drier and
    warmer in the field (more info).

    **Hiking boots: Don't hesitate to invest in high quality hiking boots. You will be
    using them often. We suggest a medium or heavy-duty boot that is best for the
    various hiking conditions that you will experience in the course. A trail shoe
    isn’t a good substitute.

    ***In order to simplify your search, the links provided in this list lead to the
    Mountain Equipment Co-op website. It is always recommended to shop around
    to compare the quality and price of items in different outdoor equipment stores
    such as: La Cordée, Atmosphère, Latulippe, SAIL, and others.
