Mark the moment.
Plenty of cultures send young people into the wild to come back as adults. This week gives young men that same shared test: carrying your own weight, keeping the fire going for the group, and finding out you're capable of more than you thought.
One of Jordan's lead guides takes your group into the wilderness for the week. Jordan will join when available, before or after the trip, to meet everyone and share some skills.
What it includes.
- Carry your shareEveryone hauls their own pack and pulls their weight in camp.
- Fire & shelterMaking fire without a lighter and a dry camp in any weather.
- Food from the landFishing, foraging and cooking over the fire.
- Leading the wayFace an unmatched challenge. Peaks, valleys, and beyond.
- Around the fireStories from Jordan and the guides, and time to talk.
Who it's for.
Made for you if
- You're a young man 14-20, a dad, uncle, grandfather or mentor with a teenager (or a group of them)

- You'd like the boys to learn from someone capable and trustworthy with a solid ethical core

What they said.
"Many miles were hiked, many water bottles filled, cool streams & lakes relieved hot adventurers… There's nothing like an extended time in the wild to reframe priorities and center one's soul."
"I was in a group of seventeen year old boys and we flew with a bush plane and fished in some of the most beautiful places ever. It was a experience that I loved and will never forget."
Plan a week they'll talk about forever.
Dates come out in November. Join the waitlist, or ask about a private week for your own family group.
