The Canadian Wilderness

My husband John and I have spent over 20 years canoeing in the Canadian Wilderness -- having now paddled close to 15,000 km. Some of my images from these trips can be seen at www.chrislepard.com.

For me canoeing and gardening are about the same thing. Its about being outside and connecting to the land. When I'm outside I know I will see something interesting, even amazing -- whether I'm in my garden or on a wild river. Many gardening groups have opted for a Canadian Wilderness Presentation. It is entertaining, thought-provoking and the images provide a glimpse into a world of fabulous beauty.
