Food Service for Rock Creek Pack Station 2018

Our outfitted trips of trail rides, base camps, all expense service, all-inclusive hiking trips are trips where we provide the cook and three meals a day. Menus may vary according to campfire restrictions and the mule to person limitation rules in the wilderness. Private all-expense trips and outfitted hiking with pack stocks may want a custom menu. We do our best to accommodate those requests.

Menus are designed to facilitate having dinner meals in a timely manner.
We accommodate vegetarians and our guests’ meat preferences, wherever possible.
Those with gluten free diets will pay an additional surcharge of up to $50 per day.

We recognize that hikers need up to 5000 calories per day and need more food.
For our trips with children…we try and fix meals that are enjoyable for them.

WHEN GUESTS SEND IN THEIR DEPOSITS TO CONFIRM A TRIP…WE WILL SEND A QUESTIONARE THAT GATHERS DIETARY PREFERENCES TO HELP US PREPARE MENUS FOR TRIPS.
