This trip will include a combination of meals cooked at camp and some meals dining out when passing through towns. We believe a main part of the experience is cooking meals together in nature, which is why many dinners and breakfasts will be spent at camp. We like to blend that with some meals in towns to give the opportunity to explore the more urban side of the places we will visit.
We will also provide food to prepare your packed lunch for the trail, and a variety of snack options to bring with you for activities.
We can also accommodate dietary restrictions (e.g. vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, kosher, etc.). Please make sure to specify any dietary restrictions at sign up so the guides can prepare in advance.
