Custom & Family Backpacking and Canoeing Trips
CUSTOM AND FAMILY TRIPS are built around your personal
or group interests. Here is a personalized guided wilderness experience
for individuals, groups, or families. We arrange the trip dates
and location to suit your needs. We are glad to run Custom/Family
trips in virtually any remote and wild corner of North America.
In other words, feel free to fantasize about your ultimate dream
trip...and we will arrange and run it for you!
Whether your interest is nature study, wildlife photography, fishing,
scrambling to high summits, wilderness survival, navigation, relaxation,
or perhaps an exceptionally rigorous expedition, Big Wild can
provide you with the ultimate backpacking adventure.
