Experienced Trailblazer leaders will teach you map reading, hike logistics, navigating trails, safety, proper clothing and footwear, food and nutrition, handling equipment (packs, tents, stoves, water filters, sleeping gear, hydration, and knives), and working with Girl Scout participants. The session will also include a short hike. You'll receive electronic, as well as printed, reference materials.
