We are a body-positive group with the goal of helping people with larger bodies feel comfortable in the outdoors, free of judgment and without the pressure to “keep up.” We hike at a slower pace than most groups and don’t leave people behind! We focus on walking and hiking trails that are more accessible to new hikers and those of us who need shorter/gentler trails.
Though our name encourages women to join, we are open to everyone! (Backpacking trips are women only.)
We mainly hike in the Boise area, but we may occasionally plan a few hikes and backpacking trips as far as 200 miles away.
