Meet Tug Hill Outfitters

Our family is an outdoors loving crew. By day we have jobs in the area as a fish biologist, a research librarian, and a newly minted, super energetic kindergartner. In our spare time we’re training for kayak races, adventure races, hiking, biking, skiing, camping, gardening, cutting wood, and planning our next big adventure. We love adventuring together, but what makes our lives full, is sharing our hobbies and passions with friends. We’re fortunate to have property on the southern end of the Tug Hill Plateau, including over 3 miles of trails and a trout stream. This summer we began preparations to launch our business, Tug Hill Outfitters.
