“It’s not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.”
– Sir Edmund Hillary
Guided adventures are more than just seeing nature or doing adventurous stuff. Everything we do is an intentional approach to helping you come alive, whether it be through facing fear, challenge by choice, or sitting around a campfire. We believe that taking risks in a safe community is the necessary ingredient to help you grow, and we seek to offer that space through climbing, backpacking, rafting, fly fishing, rappelling, and other modes of adventuring.
Through our relationship with Rocks to Rivers, we always have some new adventure on the horizon, but we can also help to custom build an adventure for your group. Check out our events or reach out and let us know what you’re interested in.
To learn more, take a listen to this podcast of Branden and Bill discussing these adventures.

Testimonial:
Menʼs Mountain Retreat is where I got to live unhindered in the presence of other men. I was surrounded by guys who encouraged me to be my truest, most authentic self. No frilly language. No cloak…
We climbed rocks… we adventured, but there was no snappy expectation of our ability. There was only the grace and fathering that all mensʼ hearts need so badly. This weekend I got to experience the thing that all men seek: tangible, honest community.” - Jason McMaster
