Day hikes, backpacking, backcountry ski tours, climbing days, and scenic road tours along Highway 395 — from sagebrush to summit, in every season.
The east side rises two vertical miles from desert floor to granite crest. Pick your altitude.
Headlamps, hot coffee, and first light igniting the Sierra crest — then an easy morning on high-desert trails, history included.
Three days above 9,000 feet: alpine lakes, granite passes, and a night sky you'll talk about for years.
Tour the best backcountry snow in California with a guide who's watched this snowpack all season.
If you can walk, you can snowshoe. A quiet ramble through snowbound forest with the crest gleaming overhead.
Learn to climb on golden Sierra granite with a day built around you — first-timers welcome.
Movie-set boulders, ghost towns, hot-spring country, and the oldest trees on Earth — narrated from our expedition rig.
We guide the 395 corridor in every season — and nowhere else. This range is our whole job, not a franchise territory.
Six guests or fewer on most trips. Low ratios are a safety tool, a quality tool, and a courtesy to the mountains.
Wilderness First Responder–certified guides, satellite communication on every trip, and turnaround plans we actually honor.
Geology, water wars, Paiute homeland, mining ghosts, film history — every mile comes narrated, if you want it.
