Curious about what’s waiting beyond the next mile? Turn that curiosity into confidence on the trail. Whether you’re planning your first overnight or looking to go further, this class covers the essentials to help you prepare, pack, and head into the backcountry with purpose. Learn how to choose the right gear, plan a safe and responsible trip, and pack efficiently so you’re ready for whatever the trail has in store. Along the way, you’ll gain the skills to make informed decisions and minimize your impact—so you can spend less time second-guessing and more time exploring what’s out there.
Notes
Since the store will not yet be open, a manager will meet you at the front door just before the start time. The store opens for business at 10am, immediately following the class, but we wanted you to have uninterrupted time with the instructor.
