SUMMARY:Women's Beginner Backpack
DESCRIPTION:Disconnect from the business of daily life and settle into the presence\, peace and quiet of nature on a weekend trip that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and inspired. You will learn all you need to know – from water filtration to what not to wipe with- and be provided with all necessary gear to safely\, successfully\, and joyfully backpack. \nEach day will involve a 3-5 mile hike\, allowing plenty of time for breaks\, learning\, and leisurely time at camp to take in our natural environment. Gear and food are included – and don’t worry\, this is not your average trail food of peanut butter on tortillas and chicken-flavored ramen. Your guide\, Becca\, has been complimented on her trail kitchen skills\, and you will leave this weekend asking for recipes. Our max group size is 6. \nBecca is passionate about teaching women to embrace the outdoors and learn skills to empower them in a backcountry setting. She is trained as a Forest Therapy Guide\, an amateur naturalist\, and a friction fire builder. You can read more about her here. If you have questions about this trip\, you can email her at becca@thespeckledtrout.com. \nWebsite
