The Explorer’s Mindset with Jill Heinerth

Ocean Week Ottawa


July 14th 6:30 PM - 7:30 PM
Ottawa, Ontario

As a cave diving explorer, Jill Heinerth’s work takes her to the most remote corners of the planet. Frequently out of touch for weeks or even months at a time, her job is to capture images in the claustrophobic blackness of water-filled caves, where an error on the job may determine her chance of survival.

The lessons she has learned about risk assessment from over 30 years of expeditions offer an edge-of-your-seat thrill woven together with important messages about how to live sustainably on a water planet. Jill will also share her work within Canada’s longest underwater cave system under the Kichi Sibi Ottawa River.

Geared to adults but suitable for kids. Jill will also have her bestselling memoir and children’s book for sale.
