John Prickett, Guide at Highland Outdoors Adventures

Highland Outdoors Adventures (HOA) is a well-established business specializing in fishing and outdoor trips that cater to a diverse range of interests and skill levels. Guided by the dedicated and resourceful John Prickett, this company has built a strong reputation in the world of outdoor adventures. John's lifelong love for the woods, particularly the Allegheny Highlands, took root during his college years at West Virginia University and has only grown stronger since then.


John's educational background is as impressive as his passion for the outdoors. Holding a master's degree in psychology, he uses his expertise to design exceptional outdoor experiences, considering the unique personalities and desires of each client. His accomplishments include completing the Wilderness Education Association Instructor's course and leading trail crews in the Adirondack mountains. John has also served as an outdoor instructor for adolescents in the mountainous regions of western North Carolina, West Virginia, and New Hampshire. This wealth of experience and knowledge enables him to offer a wide variety of guided trips that showcase his expertise and commitment to his clients.


Central to HOA is the reliable canoe, which enables clients to explore the breathtaking waterways filled with trout. This boat, skillfully piloted by John and his seasoned crew, is the ideal vessel for navigating the picturesque rivers and lakes of the region. Clients can choose from an array of activities, including wet wading fishing, hiking, skiing, or embarking on other thrilling outdoor excursions. With safety and satisfaction as top priorities, clients can have peace of mind knowing that their adventure is being managed by experienced professionals. Highland Outdoors Adventures not only offers a diverse range of services but also ensures that each trip is tailored to the client's specific needs and abilities.


Whether it's a family outing, a solo adventure, or a corporate retreat, John and his team are committed to creating unforgettable experiences that leave clients with cherished memories and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty of the Allegheny Highlands. As HOA continues to grow, John's ambition to walk the 333-mile Allegheny Trail serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication to the outdoors. It is this passion, combined with his extensive expertise, that makes Highland Outdoors Adventures a premier choice for those who are seeking to immerse themselves in wonders of nature.
