Our mission

The mission continues outdoors

We provide outdoor recreational, adventure, and educational experiences to military veterans, Gold Star families, and those close to them — to support their health, recovery, and well-being. Every trip is planned, guided, and paid for by people who believe those who served have earned time in the wild with others who understand.

Hunting

Guided big-game, upland, and waterfowl hunts with licensed outfitters and experienced mentors.

Fishing

River, lake, and saltwater trips — from drift boats on Northwest rivers to offshore charters.

Snowmobiling

Winter backcountry rides with the gear, training, and safety crew to do it right.

ATV & off-road

Trail rides through mountain and high-desert country, machines and equipment provided.

Hiking & backpacking

Day hikes and multi-day treks sized to each group's ability.

Camping

Base-camp weekends that bring veterans and families together around the fire.
