I have chosen to participate in the Wilderness Heals Hike supporting the Elizabeth Stone House and wish to update everyone on my progress up until the hike and thereafter. Every June/July more than 70 women will hike for 3 days in the White Mountains of New Hampshire to help other women in need. All of us will challenge ourselves and most will go higher and farther than we ever dreamed we could. Join me on the challenges and adventures leading up to my first hike...
Just a few words to describe this past weekend in the White Mountains....teamwork, camaraderie, motivating individuals, wonderful friendships, and an AMAZING time!! I just wanted to give you a glimpse of what I experienced this weekend and will write more soon on just how great this past weekend was and how the weather, views, and people just greatly complemented how amazing this weekend really was.

The Elizabeth Stone House (ESH) is a feminist, alternative mental health program and battered women’s shelter. Based in Boston, Massachusetts, it provides residential and community-based services to women and children seeking refuge from violence. The Stone House—which is run by women, for women—offers a sanctuary where residents may heal and reclaim control over their lives. By providing an environment that fosters peer support and programs that enable residents to re-enter mainstream society, the Stone House strives to prevent institutionalization and further victimization of women in emotional distress.
