Join First Descents Reno Monthly Meetups #OutLivingIt as we explore the wilderness right in our own backyard on snowshoes. The adventure will be a way for young people impacted by cancer or M.S. to connect with nature, themselves and others who just "get it." Together, we'll enjoy a breathtakingly beautiful, gentle hike through pristine powder snow.

Never snowshoed before? No problem! Connect with us for a quick-to-learn, no-experience-needed way to stay active in winter. We will take our time and have fun!
