Design
Want to build something in a remote, wilderness setting? We can help you design it.
Our designs are specifically suited to wilderness areas. We design robust, low maintenance, aesthetically pleasing and cost effective facilities that are able to be prefabricated. This is our specialty.
Because we also operate wilderness ecotourism facilities, we understand which designs perform well in backcountry environments. All of our designs focus on function and constructibility; however, they also consider your long-term operational and maintenance needs.
We have seen many projects where owners goes through a lengthy and expensive design process only to find out that it is not feasible to construct in their backcountry location. We get it right the first time. If you are thinking of building in remote, difficult terrain, give us a call to discuss design options suited to your project.
