Do you want to know if you are ready to attend an intermediate-advanced level Nature Manitoba outing? This presentation is geared to those members that have a desire to begin backcountry trips and are unsure if they have the skills, knowledge and equipment to move beyond the campground. A two-hour information session will be followed by an actual hands-on backcountry outing in May* where participants can apply and practice introductory skills. Successful completion of part one should enable participants to confidently judge if they can attend the more advanced Nature Manitoba outings. Part two (the New Member Weekend*) will teach the participants some of the skills they need to become a contributing member of a backcountry trip.
(* Dates of these two trips to be announced via the website and email trip list)

Registration for the 2025 Nature Manitoba workshops will open for members on January 1, 2025
