Nick Vavrichek

Grand Marais, MN
Nick grew up on a southern Minnesota farm and he fell in love with Lake Superior and the north woods the first time he visited the area. After many visits and paddling experiences he moved to Grand Marais and bought land with NHFS instructor Kent Jones. They lived in a yurt for three years and built a timberframe cordwood masonry home together. Nick is active in a community drumming group, kayaking, canoeing, community radio, and the Good Harbor Hill Players. He dreams of bigger, better gardens and far-flung travels.
