We love modern comforts! This is not a camping or backpacking trip! We prioritize everyone having their own bed, and do our best to find places that allow everyone to spread out. Our lodging will always have heating/air conditioning, indoor plumbing, running water, full bathrooms, etc. If you have a specific lodging need, please reach out using the email below or include that information in the trip preference form.

For everyone’s safety, we only share exact location and photos with confirmed attendees.

This trip is rated as moderate-advanced. We will hike some trail that are 5+ miles with possibly more than 1500 ft of elevation gain. Do not let this scare you though! We take plenty of breaks and plan for lots of pictures and stops.

A full hike list will be published to confirmed attendees only for everyone's safety.

Once your trip deposit is paid, you will receive a Trip Agreement form welcome email from Katie.
