ItineraryDay 1:
We start our journey off by rendezvousing at our gear shop located in the “Gateway to the Gorge” aka Troutdale, OR. Here you will meet your guide(s) and they will conduct an orientation meeting on what to expect in the coming days! From the shop we head out in the vans to the wilderness where the real adventure will begin with a shorter hike to camp for your first night in the backcountry! Day 2/3: We continue our journey deeper into the wilderness and honing in on our backpacking skills. Day 4: Our time together is coming to a close, we pack up camp for the last time, eat our last bits of granola and make our way back to the “Front country” as we like to call it. Cherishing the memories and laughs that were made as we hike the last couple miles back to the lot. Here we will then depart back to shop. What's Included?
