Guided Ruck days

single-day hikes - option to practice with overnight gear

If you are signed up for a WRG backpacking trip, (1) ruck day is free with your backpacking trip cost. If you are not registered for a backpacking trip, you can apply the cost of the ruck day to the registration cost of a future WRG backpacking trip (within 1 yr of Ruck Day date). These are guided hikes for those looking for an introduction to hiking or backpacking, or simply to meet other adventurous women who enjoy exploring outdoors.

Ratings for ruck days are on a different scale than backpacking trips. Ruck days are inherently easier than backpacking. If you are training for an easy-moderate backpacking trip, a difficult ruck will be great training for you. 

Ruck Days run with at least 2 hikers, max 10 hikers.

Route TBD

July 13th, Sunday
~8 miles
$50/person
Rated: Moderate-difficult

Route TBD
