Echo Adventure Cooperative is a Groveland, California–based outdoor outfitter specializing in guided Yosemite adventures, rentals, and family-friendly experiences. Founded to connect visitors with Yosemite's landscapes, Echo Adventure Cooperative offers a curated selection of private tours, multi-day backpacking trips, and seasonal rentals. Tours include private Yosemite Valley excursions with a Roosevelt-style BBQ, 3-day Explorer packages, snowshoe and winter adventures, and fly fishing trips for families and experienced anglers.
Guides are local naturalists and experienced outdoor professionals who lead hikes to Glacier Point, Taft Point, Wapama Falls, and the Ten Lake Basin while emphasizing safety, Leave No Trace principles, and regional ecology. Rental options at the Yosemite basecamp include fly fishing gear, bear vault canisters, and MSR snowshoes with flexible 24-hour pick-up and drop-off.

The cooperative supports sustainable recreation through catch-and-release fishing instruction, wildlife-safe food storage, and low-impact camping practices. Group sizes vary by trip type to maintain a high-quality experience and personalized attention.
Reservations can be made for private and family adventures, with customizable meals such as organic Roosevelt BBQ options and gourmet backcountry menus.
