Casting Connections: Fire and Flow

Casting Connections: Fire & Flow is a Signature Wayfound Adventure designed for fathers and sons who want more than a trip — they want a defining shared experience.

This overnight adventure blends the power of the river with the grounding presence of fire. Through guided steelhead float fishing, shared meals, and intentional fireside conversations, fathers and sons are given space to slow down, reconnect, and strengthen their bond.

This is not a tournament.
This is not a class.

This is presence, challenge, and legacy — lived together.
