On / Off-Trail Hiking

from $145.00

OVERVIEW

The focus of this adventure experience is all about off-grid, off-trail hiking because you don’t always want to stay on the same paths everybody else has taken. If you do, you’ll never have a unique experience in the backcountry.

So my goal is to give you some of the skills I use to plan and execute my trips so you can plan some of your own.

But if you’d prefer to stay on the main trails, we can do that too and still discuss how to venture further than the average trailhead.
