FRESHMAN ONLY Backpacking

Join Experiential Education for an extended overnight trip on the trail! You will have the opportunity to get away from Baltimore and immerse yourself in nature. You will learn useful outdoor skills such as cooking your food while camping, pitching a shelter, and purifying water. This trip is open to people with all levels of camping experience, so don’t be afraid to give it a try!

Backpacks, sleeping bags, and bedrolls will all be provided. Make sure you have comfortable shoes to hike in (either broken in hiking boots or running shoes work great). Expect to leave early on Saturday morning and be back Sunday afternoon.

Please be considerate of other students and only register for 2 trips per
semester. All of our trips are free because we want to give everyone the opportunity to explore the outdoors with us.

IMPORTANT: Registering for this trip is committing. We understand that things come up so if you can’t make it anymore give at least one week’s notice. If you cancel later or do not show up to a trip it might affect your ability to go on other outdoor trips.
