I did this trip with a few of my friends and it was awesome. The trip was well organized and the guides Cassie and Erin are the BEST. Definitely train for this trip as it can be challenging but so worth it. The views were breathtaking and the glamping grounds inviting.

WOW! A simply amazing adventure to the Red River Gorge last weekend. Lauren is a fantastic guide with extensive knowledge of backpacking and the Gorge. I met eight ladies, from various states, who quickly became adventure buddies. The weekend was filled with hiking, talking, laughing, and of course more hiking.
My only wish….it would last longer. Definitely a recommended adventure.

Everything about the Moab weekend was amazing – the company, the food prepared by the guides, the hiking (challenging but rewarding), and the condo (cozy and fully stocked).
I didn’t want to go back home! And I want to bring more friends on more Explorer Chick trips! I miss the crew already!
