September Keelboat Class

On September 9th 2016 I sailed with two of my sailing students taking the Keelboat class on Hayden Lake. It was a beautiful day of sailing! Light winds of 3-7 knots. If you want to learn to sail a small boat such as a Hobie Cat or Lasar, etc. or Keelboat take my US Sailing/Safe Boating Course... learn more by visiting the Lesson tab above.

July 30 Smith Lake Project

Attention access to outdoor enthusiasts! This July 30th starting at 8:AM we are doing an access project in Boundary County at Smith Lake to restore access to this lake, primarily by adding dirt/gravel back to ramps and a path. We sure could use more volunteers to get this project done efficiently.

If you would like to join us contact me (Miles Moore) via text at 208-704-4454 or email accesstooutdoors@gmail.com for more details, etc.

I've got one more space on my shipment for a boat.

Please call me to know what the prices are (208-704-4454). I WILL NOT OFFER THIS LOW OF A PRICE AGAIN... Seriously.

I have ONE MORE SPACE on the truck coming my way from Florida. I have a deadline of April 20th. Once the driver of the truck picks up the shipment the deal is over.

Call me at 208-704-4454.
