About Stephanie’s Adventure
Ambassador Stephanie has an exciting adventure in store this fall! She will be backpacking through the pristine Gila Wilderness along the Middle and West Forks of the Gila River. Stephanie plans to not only share her journey, in hopes of breaking down barriers of entry to backpacking, but she will also explore the connection between the people, land, and water, highlighting the importance of wild flowing rivers like the Gila River.
