Welcome!

If you are a hiker/backpacker and want to explore one of the most beautiful places on earth, you've come to the right place. Join us for opportunities to plan, prepare and execute a plunge below the rim of the grandest of all canyons. Experience the magic of geological evolution while traversing through scenery found nowhere else.

Hiking in the Grand Canyon is not necessarily for the expert backpacker, but it is for those who are fit enough to hike several miles over changing elevations while carrying a backpack. It is not an "Eco-Challenge," and most age groups can safely hike, camp, and explore in the Grand Canyon provided they prepare and learn what is required for a successful and safe vacation. It does not require mountain climbing skills, rappelling, rock climbing skills, etc. Although you can do some of these things in the Grand Canyon, I am referring to trail hiking here.

Our group will address all of these issues, get fit together, and go on training/equipment-check trips. A lot of the fun is in the preparation and anticipation.
