Outreach Retreat

Gerald May’s book Wisdom of Wilderness is a natural lead-in to a backcountry tent camping retreat. We have reservations at Fish Creek Group Site, a very large, forested area with dozens of sites to set up a tent away from the other participants. Far enough away, anyhow, that it will feel like solo tent camping, not group tent camping. Participants will supply their own tent, camp chair, sleeping bag, and ground pad or air mattress, dishes, silverware, travel mug, and potable water. There will be a potluck supper on Friday, September 25. All other meals will be supplied by the leader and will be simple vegetarian fare. A daily menu list will be supplied ahead of time. Participants preferring other food are welcome to bring and prepare meals on their own. There are many hiking opportunities in the area. Participants may join in group hikes, or choose to spend more time in solitude, coming together only for meals.
