IN THE MEDIA

Men's Health
In October 2012 Men's Health produced an online piece called "The World's Greatest Winter Getaways." They chose a hiking excursion into Havasu Falls as the 8th of 17 featured activities. We assisted them with the Havasu portion of the project, shared photos, and our website is listed as a resource for guided trips. You can click on the image to the left to see the full article.

The Official Best Of Arizona on the Discovery Channel
In 2011 our Mule-assisted Classic Grand Canyon hiking tour was featured on the show "The Official Best of Arizona" as the Best Backcountry Adventure in Arizona! Our tour was chosen based on the quality of our guest reviews, the reputation of our company, and the wide range of abilities and experience levels this trip is available to. Feel free to click on the image to watch a clip of the show. Enjoy!

Backpacker Magazine
In February of 2010 Backpacker Magazine contacted us asking for insider information on the best wildlife hikes in Yellowstone. They were interested particularly in specific wildlife - wolves, bear, moose, big horn sheep - and which hikes would provide the highest probability of seeing them. Our Rocky Mountain Field Coordinator, Steven Cundy, was featured in the article as the resident expert. They didn't create an online version, so the only way to see the article is to visit one of our offices in either Missoula or Flagstaff, where we have framed copies up for display.

USA Today Travel
In USA Today Travel Bernard McCoy, an associate professor of journalism at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln and a writer for USA Today, wrote an article about hiking the Grand Canyon. In the article he describes our company and lists us as a prime resource for hiking the Canyon. We were honored to be listed. Feel free to click the icon to read the article.

London's Travel Magazine
London's Sunday Times features a traveler-oriented publication called Travel. In 2008 we were contacted by Sally Howard, a freelance writer doing a piece for Travel, who wished to join one of our most exciting and strenuous treks in the Grand Canyon and write an article about it. In June of 2008 she joined our New Hance Loop Hike Tour, led by guide Bennett Barthelemy, and published her article in Travel Magazine in the July edition. She raved about the experience and about Wildland Trekking, and we were of course thrilled to be featured!

Lancaster Online
Ron Callihan, a Wildland Trekking guest in the Grand Canyon in 2008, is a cancer survivor. At the time he was also a recent widower, his wife having also been afflicted with cancer. In this amazing article he describes how the goal of hiking the Grand Canyon helped him persevere in his battle with cancer. He celebrated his recovery with us in October of that year by hiking rim to rim. Feel free to click on the image and read the article that was published in the Lancaster Times and Lancaster Online.

Turkey Country
In May 2007 Turkey Country published an article about Nancy Stevens, a Wildland Trekking guest who joined us on a Rim to Rim hike. It doesn't seem like too big of a deal considering hundreds of guests join us for that tour every year - except for the unique fact that Nancy is blind. Click on the image to read her amazing story and her review of our company. Jill Hewins, her guide, clearly made an impact on her, and she certainly made an impact on us! We remain honored and grateful that she chose us to host her adventure in the Canyon.

The New York Times
In July 2006 Kate Siber, a writer for the New York Times who was writing an article on dehydrated backpacking meals, contacted us to see if we would support her with the article. She wanted experts in the hiking and backpacking industry to sample several backpacking meals and give feedback for the article. We were happy to help her with the article, which came out in the next Sunday's newspaper. You can click on the image to read the full article.
