The first outing of the Mountain-Queers took place in September – a scramble trip to Three Way Peak, led by Louise Suhr. The group is looking forward to scheduling more trips and events soon, and wants to hear from folks who are interested in getting involved!
You can read more about this scramble trip, and why this group got started, in the December 2018 edition of Mountaineer magazine.
If you identify as LGBTQIA+ and are interested in participating in (or leading) Mountaineers trips and events with the Mountain-Queers affinity group, please fill out the interest survey here! This will help us understand what types of trips we can host in the future, and who we should contact to participate.
For more information on affinity groups, why they are important, and how they fit into The Mountaineers programs, please read our blog post on this topic.
