AWE RISE was inspired by Adventurous Women Exploring, a network for women from around the Pacific Northwest that come together for adventures focused on outdoor activities. Adventurous Women Exploring organizes and hosts adventures including hiking, backpacking, skiing, snowboarding, climbing, paddleboarding, tubing, mountain biking, and more. We believe in providing women of all ages, abilities, backgrounds, and beliefs with a supportive environment to explore the Northwest. Best of all, our network is FREE to join!
