Do you love being out in nature & front county camping but are looking for something a little more challenging? Do you have a passion for hiking and you want to take that farther? How about combining the two? If this sounds like your perfect set-up, then backcountry camping should definitely be on your to do list for 2022!

This summer prepare to embark on a backpacking journey through the remote wilderness, climb mountains with your life on your back, meet new people, explore the wild Cariboo region and make unforgettable memories! If your looking for a backpacking trip with beautiful views, rugged terrain and some less traveled places to explore, then this is for you!

This trip will take us over 20 kms throughout the three hiking days and climb over 700 metres of elevation. Night one we will be setting up camp down near Murray Cabin, nestled in-between Mount Greenery & Murray Ridge.

Day two we will pack up and head back onto the Yellowhawk Trail and summit Mount Murray. Camp will be set up near by an alpine lake atop Mount Murray, once camp is set up its time to explore the near by ridges and take in views of the Bowron Lake circuit and beyond. Day three we hike out, tired legs and happy hearts. We will head into the historic town of Wells for one last night together. For the last night we will be staying at the Willow River Inn (this means showers!) and head out for a delicious meal and to take in some local sights
