Wind River Range camping and hiking Trip

Wyoming’s 80-mile-long Wind River Range forms part of the Continental Divide. This remote Wilderness Area contains seven of the ten largest remaining glaciers in the continental U.S. and encompasses more than 10,000 lakes. The highest peak in the range is Gannet Peak at 13,804 feet.

4th of July Camping on Lake

Dallas is drier than Houston and since we’re camping right on the lake, I’m hoping for some wind! We’ve never camped at this park before but I’ve had my eye on it for awhile.

It looks like there might be a fireworks show at the lake (probably not from the state park). I’ll look into this more.

Camping Palmetto State Park

Camping close to Houston! You don’t have to drive too far this one and you can cool off in the river.

We’ll have four nights in Big Bend National Park to explore some of the most scenic country in Texas, heck, the world!
There’s an abundance of natural riches to explore inside the park and activities include hiking, paddling, rock climbing, mountain biking, horseback riding, wildlife viewing, stargazing, and even a day trip to sunny Mexico. Organized activities will get posted to the BCO calendar as we get closer to the trip date and we’ll also have signup sheets available for each day’s activities, the night before.

Peru and Machu Picchu Trip

The four-day Inca Trail trek passes through a stunning combination of the region’s ruins, mountainscapes, and cloud forests. Once you catch your first glimpse of Machu Picchu in the early morning light, you’ll know it was all worthwhile. Best of all, since we run our own treks, we can ensure the fair treatment of our porters and the quality of food and equipment, so you can relax and enjoy the beauty of the region. Explore Peru and hike the Inca trail to Machu Picchu! Your food and equipment are carried for you. You carry a day pack. Hikes are 8-12 miles a day with 2,000 elevation gains. Since we’re going to be a high elevation, we have a 3 day acclimation period. If you experience altitude sickness at any part of the hike, you’re required to descend to a lower elevation.
