Event Announcement: Beginner Backpacking Workshop – April 22, 2006

I am advertising this workshop because I am the coordinator and also will be a speaker. The target participants are those who know nothing or little about backpacking and would like to get more prepared before they actually head out to the woods and spend a night.

Here is a brief introduction taken from the AMC-DV website:

Learn basic skills of backpacking. A full-day workshop for novice backpackers. Covers skills, gear, clothing, nutrition etc. If you’ve been thinking about trying a backpacking trip but aren’t sure whether you’re ready, this workshop will tell you everything you need to know before heading out on the trail overnight.
