In 2005, Salt Lake Women in Action (SLWIA) was formed by a group of outdoor enthusiasts in the Salt Lake community who desired to create a recreational club for active women. SLWIA welcomes women of all skill levels who enjoy socializing while exploring Utah’s great and beautiful outdoors in a gay-friendly, noncompetitive, and affirming environment. Safe outdoor practices will be reviewed before each activity. All group activities observe Leave No Trace and Tread Lightly ethics. SLWIA conducts one group activity each month, usually held on the second Sunday. Typical activities include urban walks, hiking, cycling, snowshoeing, skiing, camping and barbecuing. A leader and co-leader supervise each group to ensure the safety of each member. SLWIA activities are designed to be as inclusive as possible to all skills and experience levels. However, please be aware of your own physical and medical limitations, as some activities may be strenuous and it is your responsibility to use good judgment when deciding whether to participate. If you have any questions about your participation in any activity, please do not hesitate to contact the group leader. You must complete and sign a Membership Release of Liability Form before participating in any group activity. SLWIA will have forms available at each event, or you can download the form from the “Files” folder located under the Messages link and bring a signed copy with you. The message board and calendar are available for all who wish to post other activities and community events. Please use discretion when posting messages, photos, and activities, as inappropriate content will result in a warning and/or removal from the SLWIA Yahoo or Facebook group. Comments and suggestions from group members are welcome and encouraged.
