Join AMC Guides for trips created for you: joyful experiences in the outdoors where you are surrounded and validated by a supportive community of women.<\/h4>\n

What do we mean by Women's+? This is AMC's gender expansive term for experiences that are led by women, gender-nonconfirming, trans, and non-binary folks for members of these groups. We include the \"+\" to signal these activities as safe, welcoming spaces for women and those with more diverse gender expressions.<\/p>\n

In addition to women's+ Guided Outdoor trips, we also welcome women's+ audiences to attend AMC's DEI speaker series<\/a> and to join their local chapter for even more women's+ activities on and off the trail.<\/p>\n

Read on to learn more about the trips and leaders at AMC.<\/span><\/p>\n
