Oct 1, 2022: Women Outside Adventure Forum – Seminar
Intro to Desert Backpacking

– Straight from the womenoutside.org website: “Desert season is upon us. Do you know where to poop? Or find water? What about protecting your food from bears, as well as pesky ravens? (Yeah, they’ll steal your food.) Let’s face it, even if you’re an accomplished backpacker, hiking in the desert is a different ball game. Learn the basics of desert backpacking with MK Thompson, local author and backcountry explorer. ” Much thanks to Margaret Hedderman, the much-to-humble chick in charge.

Sept 30, 2022: Women Outside Adventure Forum: Story Night
– MK joins eight other female badasses to tell stories based on the theme of “Permission Slip” – when we give ourselves permission to do the things that we had permission to do all along. . . but we just didn’t know.
