A Life-Changing Journey Awaits
Here’s what people are saying…
Meet Your Guide, Jesse
Owner, The Lamplighters Adventuring Society
Stationed around the world with a Marine Corps dad, Jesse was born into action.
Jesse was a hiking guide in Upstate New York, a sea kayaking guide in the Prince William Sound, and a fly-in backpacking guide in the Alaskan backcountry. In Utah, he led teenage boys through a therapeutic wilderness program. He even hiked all 2,650 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail!
Jesse feels right at home in the wild. Talk to him about Russian novels and scary movies, or ask him to entertain you with his storytelling skills!
My Mission
Embrace challenges as opportunities, become vulnerable in the face of nature’s vast wisdom, and discover each secret of the universe.
Explore a deeply personal, internal journey that will leave you forever changed.
– Jesse Dunlap, Owner
Small groups and a supportive guide promote a strong bond between clients. We often keep in touch back in the real world.
Set your intentions in your personal adventure journal. Receive space for peaceful reflection. Join wild game nights, jump into lakes, and come together in heartfelt campfire chats.
Our focus on mindful discovery with a personal touch leaves clients feeling rejuvenated, wise, and confident.
Client safety is our top priority.
