| After a rewarding career as an art teacher, Bill and his wife RuthAnn have moved to acreage near Ely. They are enjoying the opportunity of partaking in the wilderness experience on a daily basis. Bill's teaching experience provides him with skills that help him work well with groups of adults and young people. He is organized, patient and able to help his group develop the skills needed to enjoy the wilderness experience of a BWCA trip. Bill's goal as a guide is to provide his group with experiences that reveal the beauty, serenity, and personal connection that you can have with a wilderness area. He believes every trip should provide a sense of accomplishment, relaxation, and inner peace for all group members. |

| Bill's first canoe trip was at the age of sixteen and he's been hooked on wilderness canoeing ever since. Bill graduated from Mankato State University and became an art teacher in southeast Minnesota. He rewarded himself with a canoe of his own after completing his first year of teaching. Bill, his family and friends enjoyed many trips to the BWCA. These trips eventually led to guiding and outfitting trips for church, Boy Scout, and school groups. His passion for canoeing is exemplified by the fact that he canoed every month of the year for five years. |

| 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 |
Bill and a co-worker outfitted and guided
trips for his school district for fifteen
years. The program offered both winter
camping and canoe trips for high school
students. These students had experiences
that included winter camping, canoeing
and portaging, fishing, orienteering, and
developing respect and appreciation for
the wilderness. Many former students
have since become avid canoeists
themselves.
