"Great logistical experience - everyone was very helpful in the planning stages of our trip. And the food was some of the best I've ever had while on a backcountry trip. Will absolutely use them again."
"RightOnTrek has been a wonderful partner for the Glacier Institute! They were kind enough to not only supply full backpacking setups for our youth wilderness trips, but they also delivered the gear to our remote camp and assisted staff with any questions.
The backpacking gear and locally-made meals were top-quality and delivered in an extremely timely fashion. Don't hesitate to contact the RightOnTrek team for any of your backcountry needs!"
