What you get…

You get a super nice backpacking camp, set up on the spot of your choice, in the wildness of the Olympic Peninsula. We are permitted to set up camps in Olympic National Park and will help you with the wilderness permits needed to camp in ONP when you hike-in to enjoy your adventure.

We supply you with and set up top quality brand new backpacking and camping gear, so that you are sure to have the best equipment and can save time packing and carrying heavy packs, enjoy the beauty of the hike you choose, bring your kids, or safely try out wilderness camping without investing in all the gear.

One of the most valuable things we supply is our experience. We will connect with you to understand what you hope to get out of your camping adventure and share our experience and advice in choosing a great campsite. We then hike in and set-up our top-of-the-line gear to the awesome wilderness location and we pack the gear back out for you after you head home!

How we protect our Natural Resources…

We are here to help you get your adventure started and to make the most of your time outside.

One of our principal goals is to help folks understand how to reduce impacts on the public land we love. Our camps are set up with leave no trace principals at the forefront of our mind, with all the information and materials in the camp to make this effortless for our campers. We do our best to help campers spread out, so as not to over utilize any particular piece of land.

We hope our guests walk away from their adventure with a better appreciation of their role in protecting our awesome public lands, in addition to awesome memories of time well spent outdoors.
