WOMEN ONLY
How do you describe a trip that’s both rugged and refreshing at the same time? One moment you’re drenched in a rainstorm, and just five minutes later you’re basking in the sun, laughing as your gear dries. You’ll be breathless climbing the hills, then filled with pride as you sit at the top staring into the next valley, knowing you’ve earned every step. This journey is all about balance—it challenges and comforts, pushes and restores. You’ll quietly watch caribou pass by, while also falling asleep with the thrill of knowing you’re deep in bear country. Seven days of raw, backcountry living ends with a flourish—a float plane ride over rugged wilderness, a soul-soothing dip in the Liard River Hot Springs, and a three-course meal that feels like pure luxury.

FREQUENTLY ASKED TRIP QUESTIONS ​

How is the water?Water availability is not an issue on this trip. We recommend bringing a 2L hydration bladder along with a 1L water bottle for ease of carrying. Once at the lake, we strongly advise filtering the water, as it can sometimes appear discoloured due to weather conditions. River runoff may also affect clarity, so carrying a water filter is essential for backcountry safety.
Where do we meet?Participants will gather at the Fort Nelson Visitor Centre at 10:00 AM on July 17, 2026.
Are campfires permitted every night?Campfire availability is contingent upon the current wildfire situation. It is crucial to be aware of any fire bans that may be in effect. In some areas along the trail, campfires may not be allowed regardless of the ban status.
What are the bathroom facilities?Participants will be responsible for creating catholes, which must be dug at least 200 feet (60 meters) away from water sources, trails, and campsites. We encourage the buddy system when venturing away from camp and advise carrying bear spray. As a camp rule, if you use the bathroom, please return with a stick for the fire. An outhouse is available at Wokkpash Lake.
How many guides will be present?One experienced guide will accompany the group throughout the trip, providing support and expertise. They will carry an In-Reach Satellite communication device for two-way messaging and emergency contact with helicopter support, ensuring safety in the unlikely event of an emergency.
Can we go on day hikes?Participants are required to remain with the group and are not permitted to embark on day hikes or other solo adventures. We prioritize group cohesion and visibility, and any changes to this policy will be communicated by the guide. Rain days may allow for day hikes, depending on weather conditions.
Will a detailed itinerary be provided?Yes, we will issue a detailed itinerary outlining our day-to-day activities. However, please note that river levels and weather conditions can significantly impact our plans, as flooding may occasionally render certain routes impassable.
What should we know about bears and wildlife?We adhere to stringent bear safety protocols while travelling in groups. The trail is shared with various wildlife, including both small and large game. Previous trips have encountered porcupines and marmots. Participants should store their supplies in dry bags, as food storage can be challenging. Guides will carry protective measures, including a firearm, and food will be stored away from camp whenever possible. Bear caches are located along the trail, including one at Wokkpash Lake.
Are dogs allowed on the trip?No pets, including dogs, are permitted on this trip. Only guides may bring their dogs.
What if the plane cannot land due to weather conditions?The weather in mountainous regions can be unpredictable, and flight cancellations may occur. We prepare for such scenarios by packing an extra day’s worth of food. Two planes will be scheduled to transport participants from Wokkpash Lake to Muncho Lake, but we cannot guarantee both will operate on the same day. We recommend not booking return flights for the same day and allowing an additional day or two in case of delays. Consider securing trip insurance for your travel arrangements.
Is there cell service on the trail?There is no cell service available while on the trail. If you possess a satellite communication device, we encourage you to bring it along. Once we arrive at the lodge, you will be provided with Wi-Fi access. Please note that phone use is discouraged during dinner to foster group interaction and enjoyment of the natural surroundings.
CommunicationPeak Wyld Co utilizes satellite email systems for emergency communication, specifically Inreach Garmin devices.
