Alaska Photo of the Month – November 2015

What do you mean “basecamp”? – We get that question a lot. And it is a totally fair question. Many guide companies use that phrase to mean a lot of different things.

But when we say basecamp, we mean real wilderness camping in a spectacularly scenic setting. We set up one camp for the entirety of the trip with solid sleeping tents to keep us warm and dry no matter what the weather throws at us. We bring along a spacious cook tent to facilitate comfortable meals and group camaraderie. Then we strike out in whatever direction we like to explore the surrounding country. We carry light packs, which means we can cover many miles in relative comfort and really immerse ourselves in the overwhelming immensity of our surroundings!

Come along on a basecamp adventure with us! Learn more: Denali Unexplored: Basecamp Hiking in Denali National Park.
