What is Wilderness Initiative?
WI is an outdoor program that is designed for people of all ages with various expertise level. Whether you have no idea of where to start in getting out there on your own or you have a fair amount of experience but struggle to find others with the same interest, there are trips ready for you! Our desire is to create opportunities for people to experience the great outdoors with others- folks they know or may not know before a trip, but once a trip has come to an end that lasting relationships are just beginning. Our hope is that folks can connect in an authentic way through real conversation and have a safe space to ask questions/share honestly. There is a relational component emphasis in conjunction with building practical skills and the confidence to be in the outdoors with less apprehension.
