Have you ever wanted to backpack and cover some serious distance?  Why didn't you?  Was it inexperience?  Was it your confidence?  Did you get lost in the planning?  If so, than this trip is perfect for you!

This trip is designed to give you the skills and confidence to plan and execute long or short backpacking trips. Our goal is to cover roughly 30 miles of the PCT in 4 days and 3 nights. On the first day we'll meet at our office in Troutdale, OR and review what and how to pack, as well as prep some homemade backpacking meals before heading off to the trailhead.  

We will cover:
Using a map and guidebook to plan logistics, daily distance, etc.
Finding and setting up camp
Acquiring and purifying water
Cooking meals and the use of different types of stoves
Basic trail first aid
Using a compass
