Her Adventure hike for women (trans and non-binary inclusive) - Turkey Creek
About the event
This group hike is open and welcoming to newcomers.
About the hike: Turkey Creek Trail is a 2.75 loop trail. It has some moderate elevation gain in the middle of the hike. This is also an off-leash dog trail, so there are lots of dogs running around. Bring your furry buddy if you'd like! There are some water crossings--depending how much rain we've had it could range from bone dry to a stream trickle that we'll have to navigate over rocks to avoid wet feet. We'll provide an update closer to the date so you know what to expect.
Parking: There is a parking lot at the trailhead with free parking. Overflow parking is available off the road near the parking lot.
About Her Adventure: We are Bobbie and Katy--two friends who have enjoyed spending time hiking and backpacking. We noticed that when we are in the backcountry, we don't see a whole lot of other women--probably due to a lot of factors (historical lack of representation, marketing, fear drilled into us by friends/family that the woods aren't safe, bro culture, etc). So we started Her Adventure with the goal of helping folks see themselves as hikers, adventurers, and strong ass humans who can haul their bodies up and over mountains. We're here to help cultivate the journey and sense of community.
