Backpackers Anonymous | Kansas City Region

Welcome to Backpackers Anonymous | KC.

This is a temporary billboard and networking hub for Kansas City area (or regional) backpackers to find and connect with potential peers.

There will never be any sponsored or hosted trips.

This page is strictly a self-service directory. It exists solely to provide a brief window for local backcountry enthusiasts to cross paths and exchange contact info before the subscription slot expires.

How to Use This Page

1. Answer the 5 litmus-test questions when joining so peers can instantly gauge your backpacking style.
2. Click the "Members" tab on this page to scan the roster and read other people's answers.
3. Watch the calendar for our one or two casual meet-and-greets to connect face-to-face.
4. Move your network off-platform before the subscription expires and this page self-destructs.
