This year has been unlike any other. We’re in the middle of a worldwide pandemic. Our country is divided. Wildfires have ripped through the United States. A beloved and historic hotel in our town of 300 burned to the ground. And while there have been so many hard and contentious things about 2020, at Mills […]
In many ways, this summer has been one for the books. From beautiful weather to early summer snowstorms and seeing our boys riding beside each other in Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness to Lester having his first summer in the woods (not to mention COVID-19), we’re incredibly grateful for a summer of hard work, long hours, […]
Tomorrow morning, we set off from our basecamp in Augusta, Montana for our first weeklong trip of 2020 into our White River Camp in the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex. As you can imagine, before we are able to take guests into the backcountry, we have to get the camp ready to welcome them. As we […]
For many people, summer vacation may look different this year. Due to time, budget and comfort levels, lots of folks will be choosing to spend time close to home.

While we may not talk about it as much as we should, some of the most integral members of our team are, you guessed it, our mules. It’s interesting as well, because while some people think of stock as simply animals, we genuinely view them as part of our family. They each have their own […]
As 2019 comes to an end and we get ready to welcome a new decade (hello, 2020), we thought it appropriate to have our last blog of the year be about the 20th anniversary of our White River Camp. (In case you missed it earlier, we also shared 20 things we love about White River […]
While we feel like the summer season just ended (you can take a look back at our favorite moments from the summer here and here), we’re looking ahead to next year and our 2020 pack trips. Truth be told, winter came early to Montana this year and we’re already daydreaming of long summer days spent […]
