Guided Backpacking in Yellowstone, Montana and Wyoming.
Backpacking in Yellowstone, Montana, Wyoming & More: Best Guided Hikes in the West
Wyoming BackpackingBig Wild Adventures offers fully outfitted guided backpacking in the most beautiful wilderness lands of the American West and Alaska. We offer backpacking tours in Yellowstone National Park, the Grand Tetons, and many other areas in Montana and Wyoming, although we are best known for our Yellowstone backpacking trips and hikes. We also canoe the watery wilds of the remote upper Missouri River in north-central Montana.
We are a family business, owned by Howie Wolke and Marilyn Olsen with occasional help from our son Josh. Howie founded Big Wild Adventures in 1978 and has personally guided over 500 treks and hikes, so far. Our guides are our “extended family”, and all share a deep love of Yellowstone, the wilds and a commitment to share their knowledge and know-how with our clients. Howie and Marilyn live in their home where they work in their solar-powered office, in Montana’s Gallatin Range foothills, just north of Yellowstone National Park.
