Wayne Sawchuk and the Muskwa-Kechika: Pack Trip/Base Camp Experiences

2012 PACK TRIP/BASE CAMP EXPERIENCES
These vacations are one week in duration. The itinerary is flexible, with day trips of hiking and horseback riding, photography, birdwatching, wildlife viewing, etc. depending on the location. NEW this year are two one-week Pack Trip/Base Camp options: one that begins at Chisca River and completes at Tuchodi Lakes, the other beginning and ending at Tuchodi Lakes. Folks will bring their own tents, sleeping bags, etc. and prepare one supper for the group, as well as their own breakfast and lunch. The Muskwa-Kechika Expedition is hosted by Wayne Sawchuk, a photographer and conservationist who has been guiding horseback expeditions into the Muskwa-Kechika since 1985. Through his work with industry, wilderness organizations, and public planning processes, Wayne has been instrumental in creating a wilderness management area that serves as a model for protecting wild places worldwide.
