Welcome to the Wilderness Guides Council Website
Use the menus at the left to navigate through the different pages. Sometimes when you choose an item, like "Gathering" you will see that new sub-menu links appear to give you even more choices. If you are new to the WGC, we encourage you to read our Bylaws. At the very least, click on Bylaws and then on the "Ethics" menu choice. Our ethics reveal our values and intentions as individuals and as an organization.
Who we are...
The Wilderness Guides Council is a non-profit, membership organization dedicated to the concept that wilderness is the root source of our spiritual values, inspiration and healing. While each of our members operates their business independently, we are each committed to the same mission and ethics. We are incorporated in the United States and our members can be found around the world.
Whether you are a guide looking for other guides to share experiences and hold community with, or are an individual seeking a guide for wilderness initiation, we hope you will take the time to explore this web site and it's resources. WGC guides would love to hear from you. Our current members are listed in the "Find A Guide" section with links to their email addresses and websites.
What we do...
Each year we hold a Gathering of guides in the United States. Other gatherings take place as well - the international guides community meets every other year or so. Please see the Gathering page for more information and registration.

One of several Saturday workshops at the February 2007 Gathering. As you can see, we like to be outside.
