Backpacking

BACKPACKING TRAINING

When you need to get away, backpacking is the way to go.  Carrying everything you need into the backcountry is as much an art as a science.  Many of us have spent years of trial and error developing our choices of equipment and techniques. We can provide a significant short cut to developing your backpacking expertise by sharing our, sometimes painfully, learned knowledge with you.

While going on our guided backpacking and multi-day climbing trips offers you to opportunity to observe how we live in the backcountry, our two backpacking training classes are focused on the art and techniques of backpacking.

Introduction to Backpacking provides an overview of the more traditional style, while Ultra-Light Backpacking focuses on the go light minimalist style.
