Our women’s wilderness programs are rooted in the belief that nature connection is a powerful path to remembering who we are—beyond roles, expectations, and noise. These offerings create space for women to explore wilderness skills in a supportive, relational environment where connection, gratitude, and awareness guide every step.
We recognize that traditional outdoor education has often followed male-centered models—focused on endurance, competition, and linear achievement. While these models work for some, they often overlook the ways many women learn best: through relationship, intuition, and embodied experience. Our approach honors emotional depth, collaboration, and safety as vital to learning and thriving in the outdoors.
In this space, we honor the unique ways women build resilience, listen to intuition, and lead with care. Learning here is not just about acquiring skills—it’s about deepening self-trust, reclaiming voice, and cultivating belonging to the Earth and to ourselves.
Through Earth-based mentoring, story-sharing, hands-on practice, and Coyote Teaching, women reconnect to ancestral knowing, awaken inner strength, and remember that thriving isn't just possible—it’s our birthright.
