What is the backpacking like?
We will be backpacking in the Bitterroot Range, hiking on the border of Eastern Idaho and Western Montana. This jewel is very secluded and rarely do we see other hikers out and about. Here on the Continental Divide, we’ll develop our leadership skills and become experts at backcountry wilderness travel. We’ll hike below towering peaks, along alpine lakes, through wildflower filled meadows, and through forests of fir and pine. Because this is a leadership and challenge based program, we’ll be hiking 5-10 miles a day, for 9 days. Backpacking in a secluded wilderness is an experience not soon forgotten.
