Our THIRD annual ladies only backpacking trip!

Do you love being out in nature & front county camping but are looking for something a little more challenging & adventerous? Do you have a passion for hiking and you want to take that farther? How about combining the two? If this sounds like you, then backcountry camping should definitely be on your to do list for 2023!

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 rugged terrain and make unforgettable memories!

The Raven Lake trail is situated within the Sugarbowl – Grizzly Den Provincial Park. This backcountry gem is only a two hour drive from Prince George yet it is wild, rugged and full of adventure. The hike in is 5 km with roughly a 500 metre gain in elevation. The start of km 4 means the climb is complete and you break through the trees into a stunning alpine meadow. It’s only 1 km left to make your way down to the camp site, that is nestled beside Raven Lake. Once you are re fuelled, rested & camp is set up you can then head out for  a short hike up to the ridge overlooking Raven Lake or relax at camp. This is a ladies only adventure.

We will go over backcountry cooking, camp set up, animal awareness, wilderness first aid, play some card games and enjoy each others company atop a mountain.

Pre adventure meet up will be included and we will go over hiking tips, how to pack, food prep ect.
