Adventures
Wander Women Adventures take place in Eastern Oregon, on the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Cayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, and Nimiipuu (Nez Perce) indigenous nations, who have lived in these beautiful areas for centuries. We recognize that, as settlers of these lands, our recreation is possible because of the sacrifices forced upon these peoples. In recognizing the original inhabitants of these lands we strive to honor their lives and their legacy.
Wild & Scenic Riverside Trek
Dates: June 22-25, 2023
Price: $625
Hike along the banks of the Wild & Scenic North Fork of the John Day River, where it spills out from the heights of the Elkhorn Crest Mountains. We’ll be in the remote John Day Wilderness, where you’ll take in the majesty of the wild river, see wildflowers in bloom, and walk through fragrant pine forest.
We’ll spend Thursday night “frontcountry” in a charming campground along the river, then spend Friday – Sunday backpacking a loop along a creek and up the river. Each night we’ll camp beside the cool, clear river, and we may even spot elk grazing in the meadows. The trail is moderate, with some hills but no significant climbs as it stays along the river. We’ll be hiking at elevations above 5,000ft, which will feel easy with the support of your fellow Wander Women! You won’t want to miss out on this chance to experience some of the best scenery in all of Oregon!
Elkhorn Crest Loop

Each night we’ll camp beside sparkling alpine lakes, and we may even spot elk grazing in the meadows. We’ll be hiking at elevations above 7,000ft, which is high enough that most people can feel the difference, so we’ll hike at a pace that feels comfortable for everyone with plenty of breaks for pictures, snacks, and laughter. There is no better way to experience the alpine environment than with the support of your fellow Wander Women!

For the adventurous, there is even the opportunity to summit 9,042ft Strawberry Mountain.
