Seasonal
Trips:
Our seasonal camping
programs are unique to any other experience you may have had before.
Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter offer many exciting and different
challenges unique to Vermont. Since each group requires a slightly
different experience, location, and time line, we individually work
with you and your group to customize a trip to fit your needs and
expectations. Boy scouts, Girl Scouts, church youth groups, family,
and friends are all groups that we frequently guide winter camping
trips for. We guide trips in two area, Central Vermont, and Smuggler's
Notch. Please give us a call, or Contact
Us to set up a program.
Central
Vermont:
Only
10 minutes from Killington, just outside of Rutland we have many
areas that are ideal for camping trips. The Long Trail runs directly
through our area; it provides us with excellent hiking and camping
opportunities. Our local area trips range from simple hikes to the
"base camp", to long multi-day destination trips.

Smuggler's Notch:
"The
Notch" is a great place for more advanced winter/spring camping
and introduction to alpine mountaineering/camping. Smuggler's Notch
sits just below the famous "Adam's Apple" of Mount Mansfield, Vermont's
highest peak (4393'). It is a remote alpine area with deep snow,
frequent storms, and cold temps. For anyone looking for challenging
terrain and an alpine environment, this is the place for you.
