Hi everyone! I want to introduce a project I think might be of interest. In 2016, I'll be doing a NOBO thru-hike of the AT while a documentary film is made about my journey and other women thru-hikers. This is a passion project about women, made by women, and for women that was developed after disappointing searches to find documentaries about women hikers. You can find out more about our film, THRU,and watch our trailer at our website (www.ThruATdoc.com) and at our new facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/thruatdoc).
Don't worry, we aren't asking for money! We genuinely just want to share our project with you and we would love to hear about any ideas or feedback or dreams you have for our project. And who knows, if the timing works out and you are interested, maybe we can hike together at some point and you can be a part of the film too! We've already been in touch with women who have reached out hoping to meet us on the trail with their daughters. This has made us so happy because....
Our mission is to inspire women of all ages to be adventurous, self-reliant, and confident in both physically demanding situation and everyday life. That's why we are collaborating with the amazingly awesome non-profit SheJumps (http://www.SheJumps.org) who shares our ideals and goals. If you are looking to become more involved in your community and the outdoors and are looking for a group of strong and supportive women to help you learn and grow, check them out!
