As we hike these last 600 miles we are also pushing to finish our fundraiser for Inspiring Girls Expeditions. We are 86% of the way to our goal of raising 1$ for every mile we hike to help send high school girls on a wilderness-science expedition. Please consider donating even $10 to help us reach this goal. You can read more about the program here:
