Details

The wildest places are often the hardest to reach, but also the most rewarding.

In this hands-on workshop series, you’ll build foundational backcountry skills for venturing beyond the trailhead. Learn how to pack and fit a backpack, choose essential gear, manage hydration and nutrition, and layer for changing weather. We'll also cover group systems like camp setup, Leave No Trace, and reading weather patterns. Whether you're planning your first overnight or brushing up your toolkit, you'll walk away more confident and more capable in the backcountry.
