Participants will gain hands-on experience in a variety of activities, including kayaking, archery, Dutch oven cooking, rifle and shotgun shooting, wilderness first aid, hunting basics, bushcraft, and more.

Due to the popularity of the program, first-time attendees will receive priority registration. Returning participants can look forward to a more advanced Women’s Wilderness Weekend event in September.
