Guided day tour in Wallowa Mountains snow zones
Practice companion rescue drill at beacon park
Launch from Salt Creek Summit into Wing Ridge
Limited alpine touring and splitboard equipment available
A guided alpine adventure in the Wallowa Mountains is offering winter sports enthusiasts an immersive full-day experience focused on backcountry exploration and snow conditions. Designed for small groups, the tour combines skill development, safety training, and high-elevation terrain navigation in one of Oregon’s most scenic mountain regions.
The day typically begins at Salt Creek Summit, the highest Snopark in the area at 6,200 feet, where participants enter the Wing Ridge zone. Before heading into the backcountry, guests take part in a companion rescue drill at a beacon park, ensuring preparedness and reinforcing essential safety practices for alpine travel.
The experience includes limited alpine touring and splitboard equipment for those who require it, with routes tailored by a local guide based on snow conditions and group ability. Participants are advised to bring their own lunch, snacks, and sufficient water to remain energized throughout the demanding outdoor activity.
Following the excursion, visitors often stay in nearby Joseph, Oregon, located approximately 18 miles from the launch site. The town offers dining, breweries, and local shops, providing a relaxed setting after a day in the mountains. Pricing covers groups of up to five people, with additional charges for larger groups, offering a structured yet flexible winter adventure experience.

We loved the afternoon adult forest school workshop and learned all practical skills needed to make a wooden flower box! Dee rustled up foraged-dandelion snacks and nettle soup to try with veggie skewers cooked over the fire. Could have sat around the fireside munching all afternoon. Delighted with my flower box and can’t wait to put my new practical skills to use xx
My Son and Daughter aged 8 and 6 went to a 3 day Summer camp at Among the trees and had an amazing time! The said it was the best camp ever. Learned about nature and food!
My 2 children aged 5 and 7 recently attended the Easter camp at Among the trees. They thoroughly enjoyed this camp. They loved the range of activities on offer, in particular planting seeds and learning about growing food, shelter building and exploring the woodland. Every day of the camp was a great adventure and they came home full of stories. Dee and her colleagues were amazing with the kids and really encouraged their curiosity. I would highly recommend this camp.
