Application Form

We are now accepting applications for our 2026 trips.

Instructions

1. If you have not already, please review the application deadlines and process.

2. Pay the Application Fee now or soon after completing the Application Form. Update (January 15, 2026): Since most trips are currently full, skip the Application Fee. If you are placed on a trip, it will be added to your invoice.

3. If you’d like to review the Application Form before you start, you can download a PDF of it.

4. Complete the Application Form. It’s best completed on a device with a physical keyboard, not a phone/tablet. Budget about 15 minutes.

5. Expect a delayed response when Katie and I are in the field: April 22-May 9, June 18-July 9, and July 23-August 8. We will make an effort to contact new applicants between trips, in our afternoon/evening off, but we may not have time to respond until after we return home.
