SUMMARY:Off the Grid - Pastors Backpacking Trip Rocky Mountains
DESCRIPTION:The Off the Grid Rocky Mountain trip is an opportunity for those that have some backpacking experience. We will fly into Denver on August 18th. We will spend one day working with a church planter. We will have the opportunity to encourage the pastor as well as help in his ministry for a day. We will spend Aug 20 through Aug 23rd on “4 Pass Loop”. The head of the trail is south of Aspen. \nFour Pass Loop is a backpacking trip through the striking Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness. The route gets its name from the four 12\,000 ft. passes it traverses: Buckskin\, Trail Rider\, Frigid Air\, and West Maroon. Many hikers take 3-4 days to complete this loop\, with optional side trips to Geneva Lake and Willow Pass. You’ll pass through meadows covered in wildflowers\, alpine lakes\, lush forests\, and exposed rocky passes. \nAug 24th will be a debrief and rest day. We will fly back home on the 25th. There will be a limited number of participants. The max number will be 10 but there is a waiting list. \n\nREGISTER ONLINE
