I wish I'd read this book when I was finishing school. She gives hope that there's a future for everyone in the outdoors, not just bearded dudes in flannel." - Liz Thomas, long-distance hiker and adventure athlete This book shares the stories of eighteen inspiring women that showed Maryn that choosing a life in the outdoors can be done, and should be done. These women shared details about what comes along with being a woman in the outdoor industry - both the indoor corporate sphere and outdoor athletic sphere. Their experiences run the gamut from professional sailing, kayaking, skiing, snowboarding, rock climbing, alpine climbing, and kitesurfing, to thru-hiking, ultramarathon running, fly fishing, solo-backpacking, and outdoor education instruction. These uplifting women (and so many more) have not only accomplished jaw-dropping feats in the outdoors, but they have defied our society's expectations.

At twenty-one, Maryn Cannon found herself standing at a crossroads. With college graduation approaching, she had two options: follow the traditional career trajectory and buy a business professional wardrobe, or follow the uncertain career trajectory and find a job in the outdoors. This book shares the stories of eighteen inspiring women that showed Maryn that choosing a life in the outdoors can be done, and should be done. These women shared details about what comes along with being a woman in the outdoor industry – both the indoor corporate sphere and outdoor athletic sphere.
