Your Days, Unhurried
Day 1 — Lodge Arrival
Settle in, meet the group, and stretch your legs on the lodge’s own nature loop as elk graze nearby.
Day 2 — Pine Forest Trails
A shaded warm-up hike through old-growth pine to a waterfall lunch spot.
Day 3 — Alpine Lake Picnic
Climb gently to a glassy tarn for a chef-packed picnic and an afternoon of swimming or sketching.
Day 4 — Wildlife Day
Dawn start with a spotter guide — elk, marmots and, with luck, moose — then a free afternoon at the lodge.
Day 5 — High Ridgeline
The big-view day along an airy but safe ridgeline, finishing with a sunset walk and lodge dinner.
Day 6 — Farewell
Sleep in, share addresses over breakfast, and depart by midday.
Questions, Answered
How high do we hike?
Trails top out around 11,500 feet. We ascend gradually, drink plenty of water, and build an acclimatization day into the start.
What wildlife will we see?
Elk and mule deer are near-guaranteed; marmots, pikas and raptors are common. Moose and black bears are possible at safe distances.
Is gear provided?
Trekking poles, daypacks and binoculars are included. Bring broken-in boots and layers — the full list comes with your confirmation.
