Black Feather

Black Feather is proud to have been awarded GREEN TOURISM CANADA's "Silver Level of Environmental Stewardship". We are the first organization in Ontario to be part of Green Tourism Canada, and are excited to be associated with this independent, environmental initiative. Over the next few years, we will be striving to improve our environmental pract... ices and to reduce our carbon footprint. Black Feather works hard to reduce the environmental impact of our wilderness trips and operations. From a strict "minimal impact" code of ethics on our canoeing, sea kayaking, hiking, skiing, and floe edge trips, to an active recycling system for our cans, packaging, and paper materials. to supporting environmental groups such as CPAWS (Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society), we make every attempt to protect our natural environment. The following is a summary of some of the practices that Black Feather uses, in order to reduce our environmental footprint and protect our wilderness areas: Minimal Impact Code on Trips On all of our trips, we try to have the least impact possible on the area we are exploring. We have a policy with respect to a range of activities, and have detailed procedures on the following topics: fires and stoves sanitation garbage backcountry travel campsite selection wildlife viewingRead More
