Your Guide

Russ Thorpe

I've been wandering the waters of this country my whole life. Now based out of Kabetogama, I bring that lifetime of experience to every trip on the lake.

I'm all about the Voyageurs history and the animals and geology of the park. Whether you're out for a scenic tour or need a ride across the lake, I know these waters inside and out.
