Calling all adventurous girls! Join Girl & Her Backpack, a Utah nonprofit that gets girls outside, for a six-week series about winter hiking and camping. Through hands-on games and team challenges learn how to layer up for the cold, build an emergency shelter, navigate after dark, and handle real backcountry first aid like a Wilderness First Responder. Along the way, build friendships, confidence, and leadership skills in a supportive crew of girls. Both indoors and out, at the school and about, we'll get outside in the mountains where every girl gets to lead the team!
