| Max has a long history with northern Minnesota. Growing up in the Twin Cities area, he spent much of his childhood summers exploring the serenity of the Iron Range. With a cabin on Lake Vermillion, he fished walleyes, northern pike, and smallmouth bass with his uncle, took family trips to nearby Bear Head State Park exploring hiking trails and more great fishing, along with many other trips to the north. |

| There is magic in the feel of a paddle and the movement of a canoe, a magic compounded of distance, adventure, solitude and peace. The way of a canoe is the way of the wilderness and of a freedom almost forgotten, the open door to waterways of ages past and a way of life with profound and abiding satisfaction. – Sigurd Olson |
Out of high school, Max joined the workforce and
searched for his calling. After working jobs in corporate
banking, sales, small business ownership and
construction, he realized success for him meant
following what he was passionate about: the natural
world.
He enrolled at Northland College and pursued a degree
in Outdoor Education. During his tenure at school,
Max found a community filled with others that shared
the same passions for the outdoors. He suddenly found
himself adventuring on rock climbing trips, canoing
adventures, paddling rivers on the south shore of Lake
Superior, surfing waves on Superior, and skiing in the
Upper Peninsula of Michigan. With a small grant from
his school, he also planned and participated in a forty
day expedition in Wyoming’s Wind River Range where
he picked up fly fishing and improved his skill set of
rock climbing, backpacking and outdoor leadership.
