Have you ever wanted to backpack but don't know where to start? Join Kylie Yang (Outdoor Asian) and Bianca Garcia (Latino Outdoors) for a Backpacking 101 workshop!
Â
-In part one of our two part Backpacking 101 series, we'll cover topics like:
-Planning a trip (choosing the right distance, type of trip, season, and permits)
-Choosing the right gear (with a talk on layering and choosing the right clothing from our friends at the Boulder store)
-Options for great hikes in Colorado
-Common mistakes, gear libraries, and funny/ memorable experiences
Â
We'll have time for a Q & A after, so come prepared with questions! Can't make it to the Shakedown Hike? No problem! Come to both events, or just one event!
