New England Backpacking Adventure: Taconic Loop

Tackle 14 peaks, travel along ridgelines while you take in breathtaking views and enjoy a little time on the Appalachian Trail. The Tri-State Loop is a loop put together by Reach Your Summit owner and guide, Mat Jobin. It is similar in length and elevation gain to the popular Pemi-Loop in New Hampshire's White Mountains. The 33.5 mile loop trip will bring us by two beautiful waterfalls, to incredible overlooks, hidden gems and a popular ski area.

This trip will include educational segments on skills, but our primary objective will be an exciting adventure. It is open to all though you will most likely find it suitable if you are: 

- Beginner backpacker who wants to improve know-how and has a high level of fitness

- Intermediate backpacker who wants to improve skills and modernize gear

- Advanced backpacker looking for a refresher or a new adventure
