Big Wild Adventures is the haunting wail of the gray wolf deep in the Yellowstone wilds. It is golden dawn at a crystal clear alpine lake and a blaze orange sunset reflected on red canyon walls rising above a cool desert stream. Big Wild is the magic of rugged snow-flecked peaks towering over dense forests and dazzling wildflower meadows. And it is the tranquility of real wilderness, a respite from the hectic pace and pressures of today’s increasingly crowded modern world. We are trekking adventure travel, a unique vacation in the American Wilderness, led by the most experienced wilderness guides in the United States.

Here are some of the big wilds that we hope to share with you. Just click on the image to view a larger version of each photo. In addition to these photos, please note that each of our trips has it’s own web page, which includes a number of photos of the trip area.
