Description
June 7 is National Trails Day! This talk kicks off our four-part series about long-distance hiking trails. Brandon Vega, WNP’s Public Allies Intern, will showcase his hiking experiences and explain the valuable lessons he’s learned on wilderness trails in both Arizona and California. Join us for backpacking gear demos and learn about necessary supplies for hiking trips of varied lengths. This presentation is appropriate for those with little-to-no backpacking experience who want to learn the basics about this recreation activity.
