Backpack the Trinity Alps

Join us for an unforgettable weekend in the beautiful Trinity Alps! We'll hike alongside Tangle Blue Creek to the stunning Tangle Blue Lake, surrounded by rugged granite peaks and pristine wilderness. Whether you're new to backpacking or looking for your next adventure, this trip is a great way to experience one of Northern California's most scenic backcountry destinations. Trail Details: This 6.5-mile out-and-back backpacking trip gains approximately 1,300 feet in elevation as we make a steady climb to our backcountry campsite. Along the way, keep an eye out for wildlife such as deer, frogs, and a variety of bird species. Please Note: Backpacking is physically demanding, so we encourage participants to prepare by staying active before the trip to help ensure an enjoyable experience. Program Fee Includes: The program fee includes professional guides with wilderness medical training, round-trip transportation to and from the trailhead, wilderness permits, four prepared meals (2 dinners and 2 breakfasts), and essential backpacking equipment including a backpack, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, trekking poles, and other group gear. Keep an eye out for an informational email about two weeks before your trip. It will include important trip details, what to expect, and instructions for picking up your provided gear. This gives you plenty of time to stop by the Outdoor Adventures office during business hours, get fitted for any equipment you need, and ask any questions before your adventure.

The event officially begins at 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM at Off Campus. Organized by Cal Poly Humboldt.
