John Jones

Bonesy is an adventure enthusiast with a passion for cycling, mountain biking, climbing, kayaking, and diving! Hailing from a small Indiana town, Bonesy's life took an exciting turn when his love for music led to a full-time touring gig with a band, taking them across the US, Canada, and Europe. From driving one-horse open sleighs in the winter to accommodate his rigorous tour schedule to now working as a kayak instructor leading expeditions in remote locations, Bonesy's wanderlust and thirst for adventure know no bounds. Whether exploring the wilds of far northern Michigan or the Florida Everglades, Bonesy is always up for discovering new and exciting places!

Top three pieces of gear that you never leave home without?

A good first aid kit, a good knife, and a hammock (they REALLY come in handy).

What's one bucket list item you plan on checking off this year?

Participating in a 300km canoe race on the Amazon. I have been enamored with the Amazon rainforest so the 10-year old in me is VERY excited.
