Kansas City, Mo. – Walking into the wild with shelter and food in a backpack is a good way to experience Missouri’s unspoiled natural places. The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) will offer a free virtual backpacking workshop from 1 to 2 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 22. This event for all ages will help individuals and families get started backpack camping.

Participants will learn to plan for safety and comfort. Tips on how to pack everything needed for a multi-day backpacking trip will be presented.
