Adult Trips

Adventure Trips designed to mimic the teen adventure trip style but provide adult freedom and flexible arrival and departures.

Instead of meeting at a specific location to travel to the trip site, adults can opt to drive themselves to the location and leave whenever they want. Participants can also choose to eat out at nearby restaurants instead of eating the planned meals.

Trips can be pre-planned by Powell Adventures (below) or groups can simply create their own by scheduling a video call and orchestrating plans for their friends or group.

What Powell Adventures does:

  • Take care of all logistics, permits, and outfitter payments.
  • Plan meals and provide cooking equipment.
  • Provide Professional Guiding for hiking, climbing, and basic paddling.
  • Provide transportation to and from your location.
