Backpacking

Southern rockies

Perfectly situated outside Santa Fe, our New Mexico outdoor adventures are less than a day’s drive from Houston, DFW, Austin, San Antonio, and El Paso. Avoid the crowds and long drive to Colorado by bringing your group to Northern New Mexico. 12,000ft+ peaks, pristine lakes, and solitude for miles are waiting for you in the nation’s second-oldest national forest area, the Pecos Wilderness. See the area that famed trapper Kit Carson called home while traveling through several ecosystems to isolated alpine summits you will not soon forget. New Mexico is a perfect place for outdoor recreation and to avoid the crowds of Colorado!

  • Ideal for: groups
  • Ages: 14+ or in High School
  • Dates: Jun 2-Aug 8, 2025
  • Packages: 4 & 5 day trips available
  • Cost $105 per person per day

Backpacking

Mountain Peaks, Colorado

Just a few hours north of our base camp, Southern Colorado is one of the most unique areas in the Rockies for outdoor adventures. With stunning views, lung-pounding hikes, and peaks that soar over the plains, a trip here will not be quickly forgotten. Our Colorado backpacking trips have the option to start in Santa Fe at the comforts of basecamp or to meet in Colorado at a campground for a more rustic start. This is a great location for adult hiking trips or family backpacking trips.

  • Ideal for: Adult groups and Family groups*
  • Ages: *Due to CO regulations must be 18+ or accompanied w/ a parent 
  • Dates: by special arrangement
  • Packages: 4-5 days

“I had the privilege of participating in one of your Colorado backpacking trips in the summer of 1996, and it remains one of my most treasured experiences. The memories made during that trip, especially alongside my dad, are something we often reflect on fondly. It was such a meaningful adventure for both of us, and we regularly reminisce about the amazing and hilarious time we spent on the trail together.

Thank you for organizing such life-changing experiences. The memories we made have lasted a lifetime, and I deeply appreciate it.”

Canyoneering & Climbing

Utah

Like no other place on earth, Moab is truly a gateway to adventure. Every adventure seeker should put Moab on their lifetime list of places to visit. With world-class canyoneering, rock climbing, rafting, and mountain biking take your pick of activities, better yet. Try them all! Because Moab is best in the fall and spring, the season can be short for youth groups, but perfect for other groups looking for an adventure.

What they said this summer . . .

It was really cool because I was able to hangout on a deeper level with my friends.

-Thaddeus from Oklahoma

I’m 53yrs old. I came along on this Trek, as I did on the last one, to see my son become the man that he is becoming in age and faith. I received and witnessed so much more in him and myself and in the rest of the group. I feel very blessed to have been a part of it all. Look forward to the next trip. Your organization is truly amazing to provide such an experience for all. Thank you.

-Michael from Arkansas

We heard more words from some of our students over these 4 days than we did the entire year.

-Youth leader from Kansas

I felt less anxious without the barrage of emails, texts, posts, etc., it was much easier to be in the moment rather than focused on responding and meeting the demands of others’ on my time.

-Valerie from Iowa

Clarity was accomplished by unplugging to the world and continuously reading the word while being challenged… He reminded me just to be.

-Michael from Texas

It was amazing. Solo time on the rest day was the best way for me to connect with God more.

-Addison from Oklahoma
