Would you know what to pack if you got stranded on a hike? What if your family needed to evacuate home on short notice?

We'll focus on two essential survival kits:

1. Utah Day-Hike Survival Kit

Learn what every woman should carry in her hiking backpack, including personal first-aid supplies, emergency shelter, navigation, safety tools, hydration electrolytes, and energy snacks. We'll also explore the excellent first-aid and safety equipment Mt Mamas leaders bring on adventures.

2. Family 72-Hour Grab-and-Go Kit

Learn how to prepare a portable emergency bag for yourself and each family member, including food, water, clothing, important documents, medications, and supplies for pets.
