Femininity in the Wilderness: A Collection of Stories from Women on the Appalachian Trail

Posted on August 25, 2021

Hello Deerfield,

In collaboration with the CSGC, I have been working on my community service project entitled Femininity in the Wilderness: A Collection of Stories from Women on the Appalachian Trail.

This summer, I have hiked more than 250 miles and met some of the most amazing women to walk the planet. I’ve collected data, conducted interviews, and chronicled my experience and their stories on the website linked below. I hope all of you take a few minutes to check out the site and learn out what it is to be a women on the Appalachian Trail. Can’t wait to see you all back at school.
