Grand Canyon Guys Trip
I’m Interested
Interest check for 8–12 guys

Five days. Great scenery. Good friends. No responsibilities.

A guys-only Grand Canyon trip for friends from the gym—built around hiking, flexibility, and getting away from normal life for a few days.

No payment required. Filling out the form is not a final commitment.

The idea

More than a trip to the Grand Canyon.

Most of us spend time together almost exclusively at jiu-jitsu. This is a chance to hang out beyond the gym, do something active, see an incredible part of the country, and spend time with good people.

🏕

Do something physical

Choose from scenic walks, moderate hikes, or more challenging routes.

🏜️

See something incredible

Explore the Grand Canyon, with possible side trips to Flagstaff or Sedona.

🔥

Spend time together

Relax at the lodge, share meals, play cards, and enjoy a few days away.

Home base

A large lodge near the canyon.

We would rent a large vacation home or lodge, use it as our home base, and rent two or three SUVs depending on the final group size.

Your choice each day

There won’t be one mandatory itinerary.

You enjoy hiking, travel, or being outdoors.
You want to know guys from the gym better.
