the wilderness is calling.
what happens on the trail
MONTANA'S BACKCOUNTRY DOESN'T CARE ABOUT YOUR EXCUSES. STEEP TERRAIN, HEAVY PACKS, AND WEATHER THAT CHANGES WITHOUT WARNING. THAT'S THE POINT.
FOUR DAYS. YOU CARRY YOUR WEIGHT. YOU COVER MILES. YOU SLEEP OUTSIDE. THE PIG EGG GOES WHERE YOU GO — 75 POUNDS OF DOG TAGS ON EVERY STEP OF EVERY TRAIL.
EVERY CAMP IS SET UP AND BROKEN DOWN AS A TEAM. EVERY MEAL IS COOKED AND EATEN TOGETHER. THERE IS NO CELL SERVICE. THERE IS NO ESCAPE FROM THE PRESENT MOMENT. THAT IS THE POINT.
