Do It Yourself

Just Roughin’ It Adventure Company has 12 years experience guiding people on backpacking trips all over Arizona, including Grand Canyon and Havasupai, plus Yosemite and Olympic National Parks.  But hiring a guide is expensive and not always the right option for everyone.  Which is why we offer DIY Trips.  We can help you select the backpacking route that’s right for your time frame, ability level and travel goals, without the big expense of hiring the guide you may not need. We offer support and expertise on more than 1,000 trail miles of Grand Canyon, Yosemite and Olympic National Parks alone, from day trips to 7 day backpacking trips. There are many options that are suitable for the first time backpacker to the experienced wilderness guru with treks that range from the more trodden to those areas that are much less traveled. Plus, we can assist you in getting the one thing that will make or break your trip – the backcountry permit. Grand Canyon hiking permits are some of the most difficult to obtain and we will help you with that as well. From the ever popular Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike to the more secluded Tanner to Grandview trip, Grand Canyon offers hiking adventures that have something to offer you in every twist and turn of the trail you decide to explore.
