Introduction

I live in the beautiful White Mountains. I use to be an avid backpacker and after some recent hiking trips to Sequoia and Grand Cyn, I decided I'd like to experience more of the back country again.

What cool backpacking trips have you done recently?

Grand Canyon

What's your very favorite piece of gear?

When hiking, trekking poles and when at camp,a titanium coffee press.

Tell us about your backpacking experience?

I use to back pack, did Grand Cyn, Zion, Havasu, and other wilderness areas in Az. Then for years I let the llamas carry the weight as a hiking guide. For awhile I was on the Superstition Wilderness Rescue Team and trained dogs for S.A.R. Now I'm ready to experience the back country again, I miss the beauty and the solitude and the challenge!

  • Hi Sara,

    How are you? I am looking forward to getting to meet you as well. I wish I could do more activities. I work during the weekdays, so try to make the ones I can. I love hiking though. My son will be 10 next month and my daughter is 8. They are currently in baseball/softball which keeps things quite busy :)

  • Hi Sara, thanks. The picture was taken at the Red Rocks just out of Vegas by a friend of mine that I ride with up there. I look forward to enjoying some of the activities that you all do as soon as I get thru this cataract thing and my back gets stronger and I'm back in the saddle, as they say! LOL
    Also here is the website I told you about for your friend that rides and wants to start competing http://www.actha.us/home
    It is a good place to start and some of the rides are close to here.

  • Hi Sara, I'm so sorry for taking so long to respond. I just moved here Feb 17th, started with IHS the 27th, and I've been overwhelmed with moving in and getting started in my new job. I can't access Meetup from my work PC and I have not been on my personal for awhile. I very much look forward to meeting you soon as well and I am so excited about Az Women of Adventure.

  • Hi, Yes, I am still going to Moab. We leave Oct. 12, Wednesday with return Oct. 15. We are going out through Payson/Holbrook - AZ 191 and will return AZ 163 through Tuba City, Flagstaff, Mormon Lake, Payson. Are you interested in meeting us for breakfast or a ride along out of Holbrook? [masked]

  • Got your message about your overnight ride. September is pretty booked already. October is almost booked up, too, but I'm going to take down the Sedona overnight ride so you have your choice of 10/8 or 10/15. Which would you prefer? I'll make you the event host and you can edit the ride notice to say what you want. You'll also get all the rsvp info so you'll know who's planning on going.

  • Thanx Sara! I am excited to ride more with the Dames! I will look for you on my next ride. The next thing I am scheduled for right now is the meet and greet at a restaurant in Chandler...

  • Hey Sara, welcome to the group. We were just talking about doing a bike & hike ride. Add it to the suggestions if you like, I'm sure you'll get some takers. I'm in!
