Get Women Outside.
We have experienced first-hand the life changing effects of outdoor experiences, and want to offer these same opportunities to women around the world. Add to this the stream of questions from women on social media about everything from which type of hiking shoes to buy for first-timers to which 7-day backpacking trip is the best, and we couldn’t help but try to come up with a solution.

The International Women’s Trail Summit is that solution.
A 2-day outdoor intensive where women can come to be educated and inspired. Where they can grow in confidence and increase their abilities. Where they can network with like-minded women around the world.
Unlike typical conferences, which are on-location an often prohibitively expensive, the IWTS is 100% online.

That means women from all over the world can attend virtually in their sweatpants, from their smartphones, with their kids around, or at their desk at work.

Because the big goal is to Get Women Outside, sessions will
Educate for Confidence
Inspire for Encouragement
Interact for Experience

Classes, sessions, and workshops will cover a wide range of women-powered trail-going activities including
Hiking
Mountain Biking
Cycling Tours
Kayak and SUP
Rock Climbing
Backpacking
Snowboarding
Skiing and Snowshoeing

From what to wear, how to pack, equipment needs, training and nutrition, taking along kids, and negotiating the time to get outside, there will be something for every woman.

Flat tires can impact every rider on every surface. If you want to be ready to fix your next flat, join REI’s expert bike techs in this hands-on workshop. From start to finish, you will work through everything you need to know to change a tire and reduce the chances of a repeat flat. Bring your own bike, a busted bike tire, or practice on some of ours.

The Ridge at 38 Criterium is a cycling race on a fast, 1.15 mile course in the in the heart of Wheat Ridge. Participating cyclists ride as many laps of the circuit as possible within the time limit.

Hundreds of American communities have been successful in increasing bicycle commuting by providing Bike to Work Week and Bike to Work Day events. Bike to Work Day is June 26th STATEWIDE!

40% of all trips in the U.S. are less than two miles, making bicycling a feasible and fun way to get to work.
