About Me:
I am Adriene Levknecht and I have been paddling since I was 5 years old. I started on the Great Lakes around Michigan with my parents and moved up to whitewater when I was 11 on the Nantahala through their kids camps. I love sharing days on the water with anyone who will go with me. I have taught on class three and race extreme races. I have spent hours upon hours in a playboat chasing an old World Champion dream I had. I also take cancer survivors on the water to help them learn how to outlive their diagnosis through outdoor activity with First Descents.
