Chasing Waterfalls - Through the Lens
Join us for a two day mountain experience in Nordegg, AB!
Experience Details
Where?
We will be exploring in the amazing David Thompson Corridor in Alberta! Stretching 83km's along Highway 11 from Nordegg to the Banff National Park boundary in west-central Alberta, the David Thompson Corridor remains one of the few mountain areas in the province outside either a national or provincial park, or a wilderness area. From the rolling foothills of the Nordegg area to the towering pinnacles of the main ranges, the David Thompson Corridor offers some of the most diversified scenery, flora and history in Alberta’s Rocky Mountains.
What?
This experience includes 2 days of exploring, seeing the beauty of waterfalls all around us. We are taking a new approach to adventure, we are going to immerse ourselves in it! Adventure seems to have one pace and that is GO! We want to engage with our surrounding at a pace we can take photos, have conversations and share laughs.
We have hand-picked four amazing hikes that all lead to spectacular waterfalls, cross creeks, weave through meadows and immerse us into appreciating the nature that surrounds us. This weekend was created as a safe place where women can explore and challenge themselves, celebrate, support and slow it down, while conquering some new trails. While we are exploring we will also be learning and talking about hiking and photography. We will be camping overnight Preachers Point Rustic Campground, a drive to campground with outhouses and bear cashes.
Our experience has been designed to challenge you and create connections in many different ways! We are going to be talking all things female empowerment, mountain safety and adventure planning tools, including our BE AWARE Program, celebrating and supporting each other as we make it through this weekends adventure!
