Rooted and Remote
Porcupine Mountains - September 9-11th, 2026
Women's Backpacking Retreat
Porcupine Mountains, Upper Peninsula Michigan
3 days. 2 nights. Infinite stillness.
Step away from the digital hum and into the old-growth forests of "The Porkies." Rooted & Remote is an intentional backcountry experience designed for women who seek the medicine of the wilderness and the power of a quiet mind. This isn’t just a backpacking trip; it’s a moving meditation. While we will traverse the rugged ridges and hemlock-shaded trails of the Upper Peninsula, our primary destination is internal. This retreat swaps the physical yoga mat for the forest floor, focusing on:
- Deep Reflection: Guided sessions to help you process, release, and realign.
- Mindful Presence: Cultivating a "wilder mind" through hiking and forest bathing.
- Off-the-Grid Connection: Reconnecting with the elements, and one another, under the vast Northwoods sky.
Leave the mat behind and find your flow in the rhythm of the trail. Whether you are soaking your feet in the pristine river or sitting by a backcountry fire, you’ll find that when you lose the signal, you finally find the connection.
Join us for the inaugural summer session of Rooted & Remote. Space is limited to preserve the quiet.
Moderate trail experience recommended; a willingness to carry your own gear and wonder is required.
