Description:

This trip offers a unique hybrid of both volunteerism and an amazing backpacking trip. We will be driving to Utah’s desert landscape and working on a land stewardship project with the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance.  After three days volunteering, we will spend the next three adventuring in the same landscape for our own leisure.

Description:

Have you ever heard of “The Mighty Five” before? That refers to Utah’s beautiful, cherished national parks that hold some of the best landscapes in the United States. We will be adventuring through all of these throughout our time on the road – Arches, Canyonlands, Capitol Reef, Bryce Canyon, and Zion. When we are not sight-seeing and hiking through the parks, we will spend time cooking amazing food and sharing life around the campfire. Our trip in Utah will end with an adventurous day of canyoneering (rappelling through and traversing slot canyons).
