Curious about backpacking? We’ll show you everything you need to know. This class is focused on people with 15 or fewer backpacking experiences. From picking the right backpack to storing food safely, you’ll get hands-on practice and helpful tips.
Backpacking is different from camping. When we backpack, all gear must be carried in a backpack to our destination. Our backpacking events will require you to complete backpacking courses or demonstrate previous backpacking experience. We will have several backpacking adventures, ranging from simple to more complex. Beyond the fun it brings, the hallmark of backpacking is the absence of bathrooms or running water. We teach you the skills necessary to backpack to some of the most scenic destinations in the U.S. that are only accessible on foot. Our trips are usually one night for the beginning class and up to 3 nights for the more advanced backpackers.
Embark on an unforgettable journey with our comprehensive backpacking class! Discover the essentials and gain the confidence to conquer your first backpacking adventure. From mastering water purification and sleeping systems to selecting the perfect backpack, we’ve got you covered.
