We are Fundraising!

To continue our mission of fostering adventure and connection, we need your support. As a growing organization, Backcountry Women faces increasing costs to maintain our operations and keep our programming accessible. While our membership fees and event registrations help, they aren't enough to sustain our long-term goals. Your donation will bridge this gap, allowing us to continue offering affordable outdoor experiences, mentorship opportunities, and community events that empower women to connect with nature and each other!

    Join us on our Full Moon Series Hike for a transformative night-hiking experience under the radiant Full Moon! 

    Immerse yourself in the magic of the night as we embark on a journey along the Nimowin Trail. This full moon hike offers a unique opportunity to connect with nature and appreciate the beauty of the landscape.

    As we hike, we will pause periodically to gaze at the Full Moon. This moon is associated with the ground beginning to thaw as winter eases into spring, with small creatures like worms starting to emerge. This moon is often seen as a symbol of renewal, rebirth and awakening, as life begins to stir after winter's dormancy, and it signals a transition from rest to growth. This is a great time for preparing, planning and setting intentions for the upcoming seasons. 

    This moon has been traditionally called Worm Moon, Sap Moon or Sugar Moon, Snow Crust Moon and others by Indigenous peoples in Manitoba and other parts of North America. 

    We encourage you to learn more about the specific teachings and stories of these communities.

    Our Full Moon Hikes require that everyone carry their own light source, whether a headlamp or flashlight (mandatory).
