I would like the opportunity to do more backpacking and visit new places. I want to practice my backpacking skills, learn new skills, and become more confident and independent. And, I want to have fun in the great outdoors.
I attended the Sierra Club's backpacking school. It ended with a camping trip. I have been on about 6 trips led by Sierra Club members. I hiked 5 days and 4 rainy nights on the AT trail with my daughter and a group her friends.
All my experiences are favorites.

I manage to fall in at every water crossing.
Sixty miles but that was 7 years ago.
Terry, Thank you for planning an amazing trip. Your knowledge of the area and attention to detail, paid off for everyone who attended. I loved the beautiful fall weather, starry nights, amazing sites and friendly, supportive people.
