Women's Wilderness

This experience has given me a chance to experience the outdoors and the amazing environment we live in. My awareness of the world has been strengthened through this course.

This trip helped me not be shy and to not be afraid of who I am in real life, like in general. Thank you so much for letting this be possible and for letting me be more real.

What I’ve taken away from this trip is that whenever you feel disconnected from yourself, you can always return to nature to sort through things with positive energy and find peace of mind.

This trip was a great experience for me. I learned backpacking skills, leadership, friendship, and more self-love. I made a great connection with nature on this leadership course.

Women’s Wilderness has really made me a better person in a short amount of time. Being in the wilderness with nine other amazing, powerful girls has made me realize how much more I should be thankful for this experience and all the life skills I learned.

The Women’s Wilderness Leadership expedition was a life-changing experience. I learned how to connect with people and nature. Taking a break from the world of technology really helps you focus on just ‘you’.

I really connected with the outdoor world, and made friends I didn’t think were possible.

It was so cool to see what I could do, and test myself. The entire thing was so amazing and it made me trust myself a lot more and made me know more what I am able to do.

I am stronger than I think.

I discovered my love for the outdoors and my connection with the environment, and that was really meaningful.

I discovered I can get out of my head, and just live and spend time in the world around me.

The presenters. The volunteers. The other ladies there. Everyone helped me feel very welcome and included.

This course was phenomenal! Wonderfully encouraging, uber knowledgeable instructors led us through a full day of learning and practicing lead sport climbing. I feel so confident with building/cleaning anchors, and clipping buyambiennorx.com bolts correctly after this course.

I really loved my overall experience at SS and would definitely attend next year. It was a great mix of wilderness skills/activities as well as more emotional/spiritual work.

The leaders were great, they taught us so much and made it easy to understand. I admit, I was nervous going to the class but everyone made me feel comfortable and I came away with a lot more knowledge about rock climbing than I thought I would. I will definitely take another course some day.

I felt totally safe the whole day, and it was a great learning environment where everyone encouraged you to take your time and get it right. Lots of practice really helped solidify the information and techniques for me, and I really liked the way we were allowed to try and never felt any pressure. Plus I felt like I made some friends in the process with all of the other students. Couldn’t suggest it more, thanks Women’s Wilderness!!

Thank you for what you are doing for young girls during these crucial times of their life. I am so grateful to you for scholarshipping my daughter to take part in the Women’s Wilderness Adventure and the other opportunities you offer. I can see a difference in her and anticipate a continuing change…

Her two instructors did a fabulous job! Many thanks for such a lovely opportunity for girls to experience the wilderness, make new friends and have a break from technology!

Our daughter is an entirely new person! She is so much more confident and sure of herself. The course had 100% to do with these changes.

Being adopted, I do not know my ancestors but I see them in my hands and feel them when I move… Eternally grateful to Queer Nature showing me the path to my oldest Self

My experience with the Queer Nature workshops is that they are a sacred and unique space – a sanctuary for queer people to be with ourselves, each other and our collective ancestors as we learn ways of communicating with and connecting with the earth.

I learned that having LGBTQIA community in nature is vital for thriving cultures.
