Our harvests are thoughtfully shared:

Each morning, the butcher selects the best cuts for our meals. Dining around the fire with food you helped provide is an unforgettable part of this experience.

FAQ’S AND POLICY

Yes, we know this part might seem a bit tedious, but it’s important! We kindly ask that everyone who registers for a trip visits the FAQs and Policy page on our website. If you sign up for a trip without reviewing this information, it’s your responsibility. There’s a wealth of valuable information there that could influence your decision. Please make sure to check out all the FAQs and Policies on our website before signing up for a trip with us. Thank you!

EXPECTATIONS + NO DRAMA

We want to ensure that every trip with Her Wilderness is enjoyable and memorable, but we acknowledge that sometimes things don’t go as planned. Mother Nature has a significant impact on our outdoor adventures, so we encourage you to approach each trip with a positive attitude and a "go with the flow" mindset. If this feels unreasonable to you, we kindly ask that you reconsider registering for our events. Weather can be unpredictable, affecting activities like hiking, hunting, and fishing, and our top priority is always your safety. For instance, if your trip is focused on duck hunting but our guide believes a goose hunt is more feasible, we will follow their expert recommendation. If this kind of flexibility is not something you're comfortable with, we encourage you to think twice about joining us. We expect all participants to maintain a positive attitude, regardless of the circumstances. Many of our trips have faced changes, cancellations, or rescheduling, yet the understanding and adaptability of the group have made all the difference that still allows for an incredible experience! We take pride in creating fun experiences, even in challenging situations. Please be aware that our trips may involve sharing accommodations with others, unpredictable weather that could impact planned activities, limited bathroom facilities for larger groups, and the possibility of not harvesting the specific animal you hoped for. These are real scenarios that can arise, and while we’ll do our best to minimize issues, they can happen. We strive to maintain a drama-free and stress-free environment. If any participant brings negativity or drama, they will be asked to leave without a refund and will not be allowed to return. Our goal is to ensure that everyone feels comfortable and valued, so we ask for your cooperation in keeping a cool, calm, and collected attitude throughout the trip. We truly appreciate each of our customers and are committed to providing the best possible experience for all participants. Thank you for understanding, and we look forward to creating unforgettable memories together!

This was probably my favorite trip by far with Her Wilderness! The entire week was planned out perfectly. I cannot wait to go back again next year!
By Brianna F for ALASKA HALIBUT + SALMON COMBO on Jul 24, 2025
This was an amazing trip. HerWilderness does an amazing job curating the best experiences. From salmon fishing on the beautiful Kasilof River with top notch Chadwick’s Guide Service, to a scenic fly-in to the glacial waters of Crescent Lake in Lake Clark National Park for fishing and bear watching, to Halibut fishing while being entertained by multiple pods of Orcas and Humpback whales….Alaska showed up on this trip! Enjoying the trip with ladies from Washington to Maine and as far south as Oklahoma was icing on the cake. The planning for the trip was well done (with flexibility for a free day woven in) and the coordinator set clear expectations and prepped us well. Amazing trip.
By Rachel L for ALASKA FISHING ADVENTURE on Jul 23, 2025
Great coordinator (Tia). Excellent outfitter, food, people. My new mantra is do it now before you can’t. I may be the older one in the group, but these young ladies would never let you feel like you weren’t included. 100% recommend
By Shannon B for WYOMING BACKCOUNTRY HORSEBACK RIDING on Jul 11, 2025

This was my third trip for the ice fishing with Her Wilderness and I 100% recommend! The guides are so helpful and provide great advice to improve your fishing experience. The trip coordinator is amazing, has everything prepared from food to lodging! She makes sure that every single person is taken care of, and really focuses on those that have never been ice fishing before and assists the guides!
