Meet the Team and Story Behind PaddleElk
Well, it's just me for now. I am still a student and I just enjoy outdoor activities in general. I am definitely not the most experienced so if you have any suggestions, go ahead and contact me!
I was planning trips with my friends and I noticed that it is hard to find rental places because they are small businesses. That is why I decided to create a better way to look for them. My goal is to help you find the best rental locations and plan unforgettable trips.
