You don't have to be the world's best hiker or rider to join our trips.
We often have beginners. Reasonably good health and desire to be in the mountains are the main qualifications. We have an upper age limit, but expect you to know what you should undertake. Many of the camps and trails are at high altitudes, so if you have any doubts about your ability to exertion under these conditions, please have a check-up. Conditioning helps of course, and if your habit is regular exercise you will enjoy things more.
We try to start trips with fairly easy days and allow time to be unhurried and relaxed. Singles, couples and families are welcome. We ask that children under age sixteen be with a responsible adult. On horseback trips we have a twelve-year age limit, but it can be waived under certain circumstances.

Many folks like the idea of a pack trip but would like to change the itinerary a bit or just bring family and friends. We are happy to accommodate private groups (with a minimum of twelve hikers or six riders). All it takes is a bit of notice and we can usually schedule a trip. It works best to start planning in the winter, but we occasionally have a trip that doesn't get necessary sign-up, in which case we could fit you into that slot.

Unless specifically stated otherwise incase of late snow melt, some trips may be rerouted. Stehekin is not connected with any highway or road to the "outside", so on our Mountain Trips, to make it easier and to save time, we arrange and furnish transportation from Chelan (the nearest town) and back to Chelan, unless we specifically state otherwise. We'll send you full instructions on when and where to meet when you sign up. We'll send you a list of what to bring and what we furnish with your inquiry.
