Carp Hunting Expedition
Canoeing and Carp Hunting on the Upper Missouri River
Approximate Dates: June 6 - 11, 2025
with Thomas J. Elpel

      Canoeing, camping, and hunting carp with bows and arrows is one of our favorite early summer activities. Starting below Toston dam, we will float down the upper Missouri, camping and hunting carp with bows and arrows along the way. We eat what we kill. Waste is not allowed on this trip! We will also forage for wild foods and practice other primitive skills, such as friction fires, along the way. The journey ends at Canyon Ferry Reservoir.

      This is not a class. We do not charge fees, nor does anyone get paid. It is a fun adventure that is open to friends and family, members of the Jefferson River Canoe Trail, all past and present Green University® LLC students, other primitive skills professionals, and neighborhood kids who have previously participated in Ancient Skills Immersion programs through Outdoor Wilderness Living School.

      There is no cost to join the adventure, although we would appreciate donations of food or money to cover expenses, and we will likely need drivers to help transport people, canoes, and gear to the river and back. Please click over to our Contact Page and send Tom a note to inquire about joining the adventure!
