You see that picture above?

That came off our personal camera roll. And that’s where we’re going because the subalpine environs just outside the Mokelumne Wilderness are the perfect setting for an introduction to backpacking.

If you’ve never been backpacking before, this is the trip for you.

After years of being told that we make things too hard on people new to backpacking, we finally listened. We trekked far and wide to find this incredibly relaxing trail. It’s a super easy hike with very little elevation gain, allowing you to just slip into the beauty of the place without the pain and frustration of your Dust and Tribe predecessors. God bless them.

This trip is for men only. You work hard. You could use a break. And just to make it even more fun, we’re bringing six of our growing Alpine goats!

These are our most affectionate and personable little goats, handpicked from the D&T Camp One herd. They will leave quite the impression, God willing, and they absolutely love this trail!

This is an out-and-back route that will have us at our campsite in under four miles, God willing.

We’ll be camping alongside some of the prettiest little lakes you ever will see. And don’t worry. Even with this being an overnight trip, we’ll have plenty of time to take in the radiant sunshine, clean air, and cool water. With goats!

And to make the trip even easier for those coming from a distance, we are including a free airport shuttle and overnight stay Friday September 19th at D&T Camp One in Placerville, about 1.5 hours from the trailhead.

Included:

• Overnight accommodations and meal at Dust and Tribe Camp One (optional)
• Free airport shuttle
• One night of camping
• Point-by-point itinerary, packing list, and personalized assistance with logistics
• Commemorative D&T keepsake to honor our time together
• BABY GOATS!!!
• New friends and a lifetime of memories!

You are responsible for your food, transportation, clothing, and gear (limited rentals are available).
