Learn to Backpack on the PCTLearn the basics of backpacking on the mother of all through-hikes; the Pacific Crest Trail (or PCT for short)! This National Scenic Trail stretches 2,650 miles from Mexico all the way to Canada. On this trip, we'll cover a shorter but still respectable 25-30 trail miles over four days and three nights through lush temperate rainforest. Enjoy the views of Mt. Hood along the way, stop and smell the wildflowers, and soak in the lake after a long day of hiking.
Experience LevelYour guides will teach you everything you need to know about backpacking. No experience necessary!
Participants must be able to hike up to 12 miles a day up moderate inclines while carrying a 40lb (or heavier) pack. Skills Covered
