This week we had the pleasure of speaking with Jon from Backcountry Custom Canoes. Through Jon’s background in Forestry, his ongoing passion for the outdoors stemming from his childhood and his relentless work ethic, Jon is crafting beautiful custom (artisan) skin on frame canoes. Skin on frame canoes is an art dating back thousands of years. They turn out light, strong and perfect for the backcountry. Each canoe is custom made out of his very own shop and clients are always brought on board to help build and ensure each spec is tailored to them. You can check out Jon here:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/backcountrycustomcanoes/Website:https://www.backcountrycustomcanoes.ca/Instagram: @backcountrycustomcanoes
