About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour

Have you thought about spending time camping in the wilderness but don't know how to get started? If so, this seminar is a great place to start. This class is an overview of overnight backpacking and the things to consider before spending a night in the wilderness. It isn't as mysterious or difficult as many believe, but we are here to the help simplify the process. Topics covered will include the items you need to bring for overnight camping, backcountry etiquette, Leave No Trace Principles, how to plan your first trip as well as route suggestions for easy overnight trips for first time backpackers.

This is a free seminar, but tips are accepted with gratitude!
