Women in the Wilderness
Wednesday August 5, 2026 9:00am - 3:00pm MDT
Join us for a day spent exploring women’s experience in Nature. We will touch on science, ritual, and the wisdom of place/self in three workshops.


This is an all-day class that will be held both outdoors and indoors. Short hiking and some sitting in a natural setting will be part of the fun! Be prepared with good clothing for the sun and for your comfort. If sitting on the ground is difficult, please let us know ahead of time, and we will bring outdoor chairs as needed.

If you have a small special token of your connection to nature, please bring it with you!
