We know you have all been chomping at the bit to sign up for Ascend’s summer programs. We are officially launched and have an exciting schedule planned for 2024. We have trips for all ages; youth 6-18, teen internships, adult stewardship and multi-generational/family trips. We have something for everyone, whether you’re absolutely new to backpacking and hiking, or you’re looking for a more immersive backcountry experience. Check out our Trip Description page for more details on each date we have planned. To apply, click here to access our digital registration form. Our deadline to apply is May 15! Both youth and adult day hikes are first-come, first-served. You can apply anytime before May 15 for our youth multi-day backpacking trips and those groups will be curated once we have all the applications, but those spaces are also limited due to wilderness permit group size restrictions. (Our Adult Autumn shoulder season trips registration window is open until August 15).

Call the office for any questions, 530-739-1177. See you on the trails!
