About this Event
Join Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures for our Annual Solstice Hike and gathering on December 21st, 2024!
This is the shortest day of the year and a good time to consider the days that came before and celebrate the lengthening of days to come. What better way to mark the shortest day of 2024 than together?! Bundle up, find your headlamp and grab a friend to join in on this annual tradition to mark the end of the year. We’ll enjoy time on the trail and then gather for time around the fire. Plan to hike a couple of miles on a trail through the woods that includes, steep inclines/declines and uneven surfaces. Since Solstice falls on a Saturday, we can skip hiking in the dark! We will end the hike as the sun goes down with a ceremonial fire starting! You will need your headlamp post hike!
Dirty Dogs are invited if they are leashed for the entire event.
