We run this trip regularly in the spring, summer and fall, but winter departures may be subject to availability and winter driving conditions. The ghost Wilderness area is a remote unserviced, and unmaintained area. This greatly adds to the adventurous nature of the experience but can also make access in the winter as a result of snow drifts, and river ice shelfs more hazardous. We do not offer regular departures over the winter months but please feel free to contact us by phone or email and we may be able to accommodate your request if the conditions are good.
If you have any questions or would like some more information please contact us anytime by email or phone. We would love to help answer your questions or set up a trip for your or your group of friends.
