How much for a drop camp?

<< < (2/5) > >>

2MANY:
Sounds like a drop camp to me.

We're just looking for transportation. Basically a drop camp, but minus the camp. We would get packed in with our backpacking gear, dropped off, and then picked back up a week later. If a horse or mule could be left for packing meat while we're in there that would be great, but not 100% necessary. I'm envisioning this as the horse version of being flown into the Church, purely transportation.

Me too.

 A lot of the outfitters in the Methow do drop camps.

@mtncook does drop camps in the Blues.

My recollection of drop camps are they'll bring you in, with or without their camp gear, maybe come to check on you/pack meat out mid week, then come back and haul everyone out when you preset your haul out date.

That is what a drop camp is. A lot of places have two options, one is what you are looking for and the other is called a "supplied drop camp" where they set camp for you. Some will leave stock but not many because it opens up a lot of potential issues for liability as well as risking the health of their stock to people unprepared to care for them.
