The session will begin on zoom at 6:30PM and go until 8:30PM. The link to join the zoom session will be distributed the week before the session. For best results participants need to join from a tablet, desktop or laptop.
At this clinic backpackers will learn helpful tips, get exposed to handy online and digital tools and carry away some handy templates and skills to select a destination, get necessary information about topography, water, camps, access, seasonal trail conditions and weather, and develop a trip plan including transportation, gear, food, water and emergency alternatives. An opportunity will be set up after the online clinic, given interest, for a smaller group to have an in-person workshop to apply the tools to a trip that participants are planning.
