Guided backpacking and hiking trip on Arizona’s Mogollon Rim

Location Phoenix, Arizona, USA
$1050.00
This is an experience gift voucher. The recipient will book the experience after they redeem the gift voucher.

Overview

A backpacking trip differs significantly from a normal camping or hiking excursion in that it involves hiking away from roads, trail heads, parking lots…etc. with everything we need on our backs.

The days are full with simple yet stunningly fulfilling activities: hiking, fishing, ascending canyons, swimming, eating, resting, appreciating where we are, connecting with fellow travelers. The joys of backpacking are not easily conveyed in words – ultimately, the only way to truly understand it is to experience it yourself.

With no other overnight guides working on the Mogollon Rim around Happy Jack, AZ, this is your unique opportunity to access nature away from the crowds in a breathtakingly gorgeous canyon.

Never backpacked before?

We have you covered with equipment and a list of items for you to bring, so you are assured a comfortable journey.

Additionally, your guide is a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) and has their CPR certification, so guests will be in the best of hands.

Get off the main road for a self sufficient 3 day / 2 night backpacking trip into a remote canyon that has a creek full of fish and plenty of swimming holes with a local wilderness guide.

While this hike requires no previous experience, we’ll descend 800ft from the canyon rim in 0.7 mile, which makes for a more strenuous hike out. Once at the canyon floor, the next quarter mile requires boulder hopping and a fair amount of bushwacking that can be difficult to get through. Past this however, the hike becomes more pleasant until we reach camp.

Once camp has been set up, guests are free to enjoy the wilderness area as they please. Activity options include swimming, fishing, hiking, birding, etc.

We provide everything except clothing, footwear, rain gear, personal items, snacks, and a couple small gear items. All the gear we provide (backpacks, sleeping bag, tents, sleeping pads, cooking gear) is top-of-the-line. Also, you can request to share a tent with others in your party or have one to yourself. Breakfast and dinner are included and your guide will help prepare all meals. Pack weights vary between 25 and 45 pounds, depending on the trip specifics.
