Complete and Partial Outfitting Packages
This option is perfect for the group that needs complete outfitting for most people in the party, but a few people need some gear or food. For a minimum equipment/trail food fee of only $50 for each partially outfitted person, let us fill in the holes. All group members enjoy vehicle parking and a wilderness routing & orientation session.
Transport: for groups made up of both Complete and Partial Outfitting, the Entry/Exit Point Transport Rate is based on 1/2 the Partial Outfitting Transport Rate. Gas surcharge applies.
