Women’s Grand Canyon Backpacking

You will meet your team and leaders in Kanab, UT where you will have an introduction and orientation time. You'll then be issued food, group gear, and rental gear if requested. After that, your leaders will check that each student has the required items on the packing list and lead you in learning how to pack your backpack.

Your team will pick up a quick dinner meal (*this meal is not covered by SROM) in Kanab before driving about an hour and a half to the trailhead where you will camp that evening.

**SROM will be offering a pick-up and drop-off at the Las Vegas Airport for a round trip fee. Please speak with Customer Support for more details.

You will spend 6 days backpacking in the Grand Canyon from the remote and rugged North Rim. There you will see extraordinary views and unforgettable scenery while camping beneath starry skies while making your way to the Colorado River and back up again. We will teach you the technical outdoor skills to thrive in the wilderness including backcountry cooking and navigation. Each day will have a spiritual theme with group time in the evenings that often includes worship, teaching and discussion. You will also get extended time to reflect and spend time alone with God. The lessons build upon each other, culminating with the opportunity to reflect on what you learned during the trip that you want to take back home.

Upon hiking out of the canyon, your instructors will collect group and rented gear. The team will plan to have a celebratory *lunch in Kanab; however, if you are driving and prefer to leave from the North Rim, you may skip the meal.
