Friday Backpacking Clinics

at Mountain Expedition Supply (MES) in Branford, CT!

Do you want to learn the skills necessary to go backpacking on your own? Do other longer courses not cut it for you? Well then look no further than our Friday evening clinics hosted at Mountain expedition Supply in Branford.

Every other week we will be discussing different topics that will help train you how to go backpacking on your own with the proper skills under your belt. You will get the chance to get your hands on a variety of different equipment to compare comfort, fit, and ease of use. You will be coached and taught by instructors with hundreds of nights spent in the woods, and with a wealth of information to pass on. And if you want to get outfitted with proper gear, we will be in a great local gear shop that can set you up with the tools that you need.

Please feel free to bring any and all personal backpacking equipment that you already own. If you have questions, we can help to answer those, and to provide you with the necessary instruction and context to use equipment correctly. If you have no gear, no worries! We will have plenty available for you.
