Like many of you, we are in a position where we may be cancelling an upcoming trip where we were planning on getting rides to our entry and exit point along with renting canoes and some miscellaneous gear. I'll be talking to our group about leaving our deposit as a credit for a future trip instead of asking for a refund.

I would encourage others to consider doing the same if you can afford to in light of the lost revenue all the outfitters are experiencing.

Voyageur Canoe Outfitters sent an email saying the same thing. Its a great idea. Also purchasing some merch from your fav outfitter or any outfitter is a great way to help.

VCO does something kind of cool where they offer a "Mystery Bag" its a $100 value for only $78.

From their website;
Each mystery bag will have a combination of some of the following items! Please specify size in the “additonal notes” section

Sweatshirts
T- Shirts
Long Sleeve T-Shirts
Hats
Tumblers
Camp Cups
Shot Glasses
Thermos

I'm not sure if other outfitters do the same or not. I haven't looked into them yet.
