Thank you to our listeners, supporters, Kickstarter contributors, Altra, and everyone who’s helped make this idea into a reality. We ALL did this! We are already seeing the power of sharing these stories, highlighting different perspectives and experiences in outdoor spaces, and making connections to grow community, representation, and support so that everybody feels welcome and safe to show up as their full selves. We are just getting started!
