"I learned early in life that the richness in life is found in adventure. Adventure calls on all the faculties of mind and spirit. It develops self-reliance and independence. Life then teams with excitement." William O Douglas

The Walshe family are the primary owners/guides of Raven EcoVentures. They have had extensive experience living, working and canoeing for over 30 years in Quetico Provincial Park, a wilderness-canoeing park in Northern Ontario. Shan Walshe (father) was head park naturalist in the park for over 20 years. Shan instilled in them a great love and appreciation for the outdoors, particularly large tracts of pristine wilderness areas. Now a legend to Quetico, Shan was their main inspiration for starting this business. The Walshes have also spent a significant amount of time exploring the area east of Quetico by canoe. They have had years of experience working as botanists, wildlife biologists, researchers, teachers and wilderness explorers in the boreal forest across Canada. They have researched black bears, wolves, fisher, wolverine, moose and woodland caribou. The Walshes have also spent a number of years working and canoeing in Woodland Caribou Provincial Park near Red Lake, Ontario.
