Yes, the cost is $485 per day per person. This price includes comprehensive training, all meals, and all essential equipment — everything except your shoes, clothing, and personal items. We ensure you are fully equipped and ready for an unforgettable adventure.

No, we do not provide guides for our trips because we are not permitted to guide in many of the areas we visit. Therefore, the training we provide is crucial to prepare you for self-sufficient travel in the wilderness. You will be equipped with a Garmin InReach device for location tracking and progress monitoring. Additionally, we offer travel, medical, and extraction insurance to ensure your safety.

Yes, wild animals are a natural part of the wilderness experience, including bears and cougars. However, encounters with wildlife are rare. Our training includes a detailed section on how to safely handle encounters with bears, cougars, and other wildlife to minimize risk and ensure a safe adventure.

Yes, we offer custom expeditions and discounts for families and groups of eight or more people. We are passionate about getting families into the wild and will work with you to provide a cost-effective adventure for your group.

Your health and safety are our top priorities. The health screening helps us understand your physical condition and any specific medications you might need. We use this information to plan for any health contingencies, such as preparing a “Sick Day” plan and backup medications in case yours are lost. We also tailor the mileage, elevation gain, and terrain to match the group’s fitness levels for a safe and enjoyable adventure.

Yes, depending on the circumstances, we may offer a credit for a future adventure if you cancel within 15 days of your trip. Please contact us to discuss your situation, and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Unfortunately, we cannot control the weather, so trips proceed as planned in rain and mild weather changes. However, in the event of extreme weather, we will reschedule your expedition for a future date to ensure your safety and enjoyment.

Yes, you can bring your dog! Please let us know in advance, and we will plan your expedition in areas where dogs are allowed on a leash. Your furry friend can join you on your adventure, making the experience even more memorable.

Yes, we offer various classes and workshops throughout the year, including wilderness survival, navigation, and more. Check our website for the latest schedule. We also offer private classes for groups; contact us to arrange a personalized session.

Absolutely! We provide freeze-dried food and snacks for convenience, but you are welcome to bring your own food to suit your tastes and dietary needs. Personalizing your food options can enhance your backcountry experience.

Yes, for most trips, we use established ferry services with fixed schedules and limited stops. If you prefer a private boat with a flexible itinerary for activities like fishing, waterfall visits, or wildlife watching, we can arrange it for an additional cost. Let us know your preferences, and we will customize your adventure accordingly.
