Backcountry Fishing Adventure (Oregon, Western USA)

​

The Wallowas of northeastern Oregon are known as some of the most beautiful mountains in the West. This backcountry adventure allows you to escape civilization and venture into untouched wilderness.  Amidst the breathtaking scenery surrounding you, expect to catch plenty of unsuspecting trout that have never encountered a lure or fly.  

 

You may be in the backcountry, but there's no need to rough it.  Our guides pack in a comfortable camp and cook delicious meals every day.  We customize appropriate hiking routes based on the needs and abilities of your party (up to 8 individuals).  Backcountry trips take place in July and August.

​

We access the backcountry the way true cowboys do--on horseback.  Horses allow for easy packing of camp equipment and make for exciting day rides.  Backcountry trails are in roadless areas designated as wilderness. There will be no restroom facilities or buildings.  

​

All of our outdoor adventures are custom made to fit your needs.  Please contact us for pricing of your next custom outdoor adventure.
