Our home base is in central Vermont, on the banks of the North Branch river and under the shadow of Worcester Mountain.   We believe that traveling in the backcountry, on foot or by canoe, has the ability to empower people’s courage, clarify their priorities, and get them in touch with their most authentic selves.  Our trips and classes not only teach you all the skills you need to enter the wilderness with confidence, but also honor the spiritual renewal of the experience through song, ceremony, and community-building.  We specialize in backpacking trips on Vermont's Long Trail and canoe trips on the Northern Forest Canoe Trail.  We also offer skill-based classes such as the Village Medic Training and the Huntress Intensive.
