Overnight Backpacking (Outing)

Make the leap from car camping to backpacking. Join our instructors on an overnight trip to a local backpacking camp. You’ll learn camp skills such as proper campsite selection, camp cooking, and Leave No Trace camp etiquette.

Waitlists

In order to keep our instruction personable, space on our classes and outings is limited. If you are interested in an activity that has filled, we would be happy to place you on a waitlist for that event. If space opens, we will contact the list in the order you signed up, but we are unable to hold that spot if we're unable to speak with you directly. Providing us with your best contact information increases your chances of joining us.
