The KW Backcountry Travel Meetup Monthly Meetup

We will discuss our past trips, ideas for upcoming trips, welcome new members, and just generally hang out.

Some item to discuss:

With winter upon us we will be running less trips. This, however, is a great time to do clinics and planning for next year. Does anyone have any ideas of topics they would like to hear about? Is there something you would like to teach the group about? Some ideas I have below,

Would anyone be interested in a two day Red Cross "Wilderness and Remote Environments" course? If I can get enough people in on it we can get a trainer to come to hold a private class. Doing this two day class would result in a official Red Cross certification.
If there is an interest I would be happy to a host some clinics on various aspects of lightweight/ultralight backpacking.
For people who a new to backpacking or any other wilderness trip (canoe camping) I would be happy to teach a introduction if there is enough interest.

Also I would like to get out and do a winter camping trip. A weekend trip with a snow shoe or hike into the Algonquin back-country. Is there anyone else interested?

I look forward to seeing everyone at the next meeting.
