Question 1

What will we do?

Accepted Answer

First, we will decide on the day's hike based on your hiking experience and what you'd like to see (mountains, waterfalls, lakes, etc). After we pick our destination, we will caravan to the trailhead where we'll stretch to ensure we don't pull a muscle and then get right into the beautiful nature Washington has to offer.

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

We strongly encourage athletic wear and hiking boots. If you don't have hiking boots, we recommend wearing sneakers with ankle support and good grip on the soles.

Question 4

How long will the hike be?

Accepted Answer

The duration of the hike will depend on where we decide to go as a group. We typically tell customers to reserve 6 hours and 30 minutes of their day from pick-up to drop-off. The average hiking pace is about 30 minutes per mile, so once we decide the hike we will have a better estimate of time.

Yes. If one of our guides are available, then we will work on making this a reality for you. Please reach out to us through our contact page to schedule and talk through the details.

Can children come?
