Hey there!

I'm Trish.
Founder of Women in the Wild.

Read my story  ➝

I was craving connection and wound up creating an entire community.

It's hard to believe now, but just a couple years back I didn't have any female friends who were willing to go hiking. My girlfriends felt overwhelmed and underprepared, so I was always going alone. After a couple years of this I decided to create the community I craved, one where I could facilitate growth in a comfortable group setting and we could all help build on each other's knowledge and skills. With safety as my #1 priority, every day more and more women are feeling capable and prepared to get a little (or a lot) more adventurous by joining and participating in our community.

What Members are Saying...

Let Other Women Inspire You.

"I'm really grateful for my first outing with Women in the Wild. Thanks to the women who organized the event, I was able to have my first backpacking experience in almost 30 years. The trip leaders were very generous with their time answering my questions in advance and very supportive and patient."

"This was my first WitW adventure and I am all praises for it. Our host was fantastic; punctual communication and very helpful throughout. The group chat made it very easy to discuss carpools, permits, and gear. And lastly, all the women who showed up were a great group to be around and camp with. This was my first backpacking trip and I am definitely looking forward to more events with WitW!"
