OP Alpine Backpacking Trip

Explore the pine forests, wildflower meadows, and rocky peaks of the Uinta Mountains! This trip is geared toward any experience level, including beginners. If you have been interested in seeing a different part of the state, backpacking, getting more involved with the outdoor program, or just getting outside for the weekend - this trip is for you!

Cost:

Generous donors from our One Westminster Day fundraiser are allowing us to offer all of our weekend trips this year for just $20! This includes all food, transportation, equipment, and instruction.

At the Outdoor Program, we acknowledge that not all parts of all trips are accessible to all people. On this trip, we will be traveling in college vehicles to a car-accessed trailhead, hiking and scrambling on uneven trails of dirt and rock or off trail, carrying backpacks weighing up to 40 pounds. If there are other details that would help you understand the accessibility of this trip, please reach out to

with any questions and we would be happy to talk through possibilities and potential accommodations.

No experience or equipment necessary. Check out the

Backpacking Equipment List

and indicate any gear you will need to borrow from the Outdoor Program on this registration.

We offer sliding scale pricing for students as needed - We encourage anyone interested to email
