2026 October Wild Resilience Misogi
Oct 8 12pm- 12th 2pm | 5 Days | Dolly Sods WV
Service Description
Dolly Sods backpacking loop is sometimes an unblazed, rugged adventure through a high-elevation plateau known for its unique northern-like ecosystem of bogs, heath shrubs, and stunted spruce, featuring challenging stream crossings, muddy terrain. We will backpack up to 40 miles and 8k of elevation. This is a truly unique landscape. This retreat will allow for resilience-building conversations and activities to reflect on experiences we will encounter on the trail.
