Visit Vicariously: Trip Reports
Published April 22, 2019
There is no better way to experience a Backcountry Journeys trip than to go on one. Anything short of booking and traveling with us just cannot equal the experiences, sights, friends made, or the images that you’ll produce while on one of our world-class trips. So, where do you want to go next?
Whether you have traveled with us in the past, or are considering a trip, Backcountry Journeys would like to bring you with us, in a way, with our Trip Reports.
At the conclusion of each Backcountry Journeys trip, we’ll post a report on our Trip Reports Page. It will be written by the guide and will discuss the trip and all of its notable happenings.

Interested in a particular trip? This is one place where you can see exactly what went on! What did the group do, see and photograph? What were some of the successes and challenges? How was the weather? How were the food and accommodations? Were the people on the trip any fun? Did anything strange, unusual, or really interesting happen?
Find out with the Trip Reports!
We feel these reports are a really nice way that you can visit each of our amazing destinations vicariously from your computer, whether you are at home or at the office. Read them for fun, for information, or to get psyched up about YOUR next Backcountry Journeys trip! Find out here what it is like to be on a trip, and then go book one for yourself!
