We will be having evening fire-side chats covering several different topics from enhancing your images with Lightroom, Photoshop, lighting on location, leadership and business and open forums to ask the questions you have always wanted to ask. You will also have great networking opportunities as well as a time to recharge your batteries.

Q: when should i arrive/depart?

There is no discount for bringing your own vehicle.

A: Yes. The registration guarantees you a bed and a minimum of 2 meals a day plus snacks and water. The rate is actually at a lower cost than staying at a hotel.

Q. does the cost cover food and lodgiing?

A: We understand and know the difficulty it can be finding meals. At FYF, we provide a min of 2 meals a day. We have several options available for those with dietary restrictions. We do our best to make sure each person's needs are met Please list any severe food allergies on the registration form.

Q: are the hikes difficult?

A: Yes, each day we will have excursions. Some will be available by road and others by foot. Most trails will be an out and back so you do not have to go the distance to keep up. Hiking is an "your own pace". 

Q. will there be hiking?

Q: can we go where we want?

A: This is a hard question. Each person will have different ideas of difficulty. Hikes and trails range from 0-1000' elevation changes and can be as long as 6 miles. Each location we visit has options for the extreme explorer and the Sunday stroller, so no one is left out. At FYF, we ask that attendees can maintain a 30 minute mile. If you can walk 3 miles and/or 3 flights of stars without strain, then you will be able to do all we do at FYF.

A: If I cancel, do I get my money back. Unfortunately no. Due to the inclusive nature of the event and the demand for space at these locations refunds can not be issued. However, your ticket may be transferred to another person or rolled over to a following event or FYF product. In rare cases, exceptions and partial refunds may be made on a case by case basis. If you feel you may not be able to attend, many companies offer trip insurance at very affordable rates. Check with your local agent for details.
