March is almost upon us and I’ve been reminiscing about a trip to Nevada and Utah we took around this time last year. It was my first trip to Las Vegas, our first experience on a budget airline, and our first time hiking Zion National Park. While I can’t divulge any of my stories of Vegas [because as we all know: what happens in Vegas STAYS in Vegas], I can HAPPILY share my memories of the rest of this trip.
Group Trip 2018
For those who may not know it, my cohort MaryR & I founded a group called the No. 1 Ladies Hiking Society in 2016. We’re now up to 399 members (just can’t seem to reach 400), & it’s time to plan a big group trip. But we’re an adventurous group, willing to explore ANYWHERE, so where to go…hmmm…
We could certainly go rogue & do all the planning ourselves, OR we could prevent more gray hairs from sprouting atop my head & opt for a company that provides guided group hikes. Guided trips are certainly more expensive but they provide a richer experience & are MUCH easier to plan. Since I’ve been researching options, I thought I’d share some of my favorites so far. Prices below are per person based on double occupancy (a single room will always cost extra) & airfare is NOT included, so keep this in mind if price is your determining factor. Trips are listed in order of my personal favorites:
