Hike Out of the Wilderness

After your last delicious camp meal and bottomless coffee, pack up your gear and hit the trail. While it's tempting to put your head down and hustle (like a horse to the barn), even your last day is a chance to deepen your experience in the wild and enjoy the stroll back to civilization. 


Typically, groups reach the trailhead between 1-4PM, please plan flights & travel plans accordingly. 


Before your final departure, be sure to pick up custom Go Wild gifts, from t-shirts, to hand made leather work to local art prints of your location.
