Wil Hufton III
We wanted to share our experience. In 1994 we created Johnny Panther Quests Adventure Trips. Providing ecotours by boat (and other modes) for people to get out and experience some of our areas best kept secrets is our passion. From soft adventures through 18,000 acres of the "Everglades of Michigan" (the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge and State Game Area), to adventure trips through the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Treading lightly, we strive to "leave it better than what we found it". Our boat tours and charters offer tranquil escapes close to Frankenmuth, Saginaw, and Oscoda, Michigan just to name a few. Imagine cruising into the sunset, and returning under the stars.
Our second playground is the White Mountains of New Hampshire. From the serenity of a mountain pool to the adrenaline of rock running up the river to get there, that is our core spirit. The thrill of our "quests" and the gift of life is what drives us. We live for this stuff, and it keeps us alive. Entering our 30th year of business, the friendships and memories created are priceless. We offer thirty plus years of experience "playing" in the areas we guide, still each day provides us with something new and exciting.
