Ardelle Hynes

Ardelle is the smiling voice you'll hear at the other end of the phone and co-owner of the business. Originally from Nova Scotia, Ardelle is an avid cyclist who has toured throughout the Maritimes, the U.S., Mexico, and Europe, and in 1998 completed a solo trip across Canada. Now in her sixth year at the head office of Outside Expeditions, she splits her home between Revelstoke, B.C, and Rustico, PEI. When not doing ten things at once in the office, Ardelle can be found ski touring in the Canadian Selkirks, racing her bicycle, running, kitesurfing, hiking or climbing.

Tim Nicholls

After four years of guiding with Outside Expeditions, Tim is now co-owner of the business. In addition to keeping our tours running smoothly, Tim maintains all our kayaks and bicycles to keep them in perfect working order. Tim's extensive travels in the last few years have included a winter of paddling in Vietnam, five months' cycle touring in Australia and New Zealand, and a season teaching English in Costa Rica and Guatamala.

Alan Stanley

Alan has just done a 180 career shift from blacksmith to systems analyst, and is also is a keen paddler who has built several beautiful wooden boats. Our head instructor, you will most likely see Alan if you take one of our courses or clinics. Alan's goal is to become a Level Two instructor by the end of the summer.

Sean Molloy

Sean was supervisor at our Brudenell location this summer, and in his third year with Outside Expeditions. Originally from Ontario, Sean has been in PEI for the last few years taking his Bach. of Arts through UPEI. He is going on full scholarship for his Master's in Anthropology at Memorial this fall. Besides paddling, Sean's interests include parachuting and diving.

Nathan and Kevin MacLeod
We're slowly learning to tell these identical twins from Orwell apart but believe us, it's not easy! Starting at UPEI's engineering program in the fall, Kevin and Nathan's past work has included agricultural work and silviculture. They'll join us in North Rustico.
