Full Day in Yosemite National Park
We’ll spend the day exploring the world-famous Yosemite Valley and its jaw-dropping sights: El Capitan, Half Dome, Bridalveil Fall, and the Merced River. Whether we opt for a scenic hike, a quiet moment beneath towering cliffs, or simply soaking in the views from Glacier Point, Yosemite’s dramatic landscape will be a soul-stirring highlight. This day is yours to enjoy the park at your own leisure. This isn’t a guided experience. We’ll share a sample itinerary and a few ideas, but you’re completely free to explore the park however you’d like at your own pace or alongside your new Her Wilderness friends.

After a day in the forest, we’ll head to the mountain town of Three Rivers to rest up for tomorrow’s river adventure. This isn’t a guided experience.

DAY 4 - JUNE 13
Fly Fishing in Sequoia National Park
Today’s all about wild trout, fresh water, and the rhythmic peace of fly fishing. With an expert outfitter leading the way, we’ll explore some of Sequoia National Park’s most iconic fisheries, including creeks and rivers in the Lodgepole and Mineral King areas.
You’ll have a chance to catch:
Golden Trout – California’s stunning state fish, native to the high Sierra
Rainbow Trout – vibrant and abundant in the Kaweah drainage
Brown Trout & Brook Trout – often found in shaded pools and tributaries
Our guides will take us into pristine waters like the Marble Fork of the Kaweah River, Clover Creek, and the rarely accessed Wolverton and Silliman Creeks. For those up for a scenic drive, the Mineral King Valley offers high-country streams and lakes, nestled in a rugged, remote part of the park and it’s one of the only places you can drive to for golden trout wilderness.
All gear is provided, and no experience is necessary, just a willingness to learn, laugh, and wade into adventure.

Since 2019, Her Wilderness has been the leader in creating outdoor adventure and travel experiences for women. From hunting and fishing trips, hiking and camping, all the way down to networking events to meet like-minded women, we tailor our experiences to allow more women to get outside and help them #OwnYourWilderness. Her Wilderness exists to encourage women to try something new and strive for an adventurous lifestyle that emulates passion. Our intention is to create a safe, relaxed, and judgment free environment for women from all

Our recent Iowa Pheasant trip was an unforgettable adventure! Eight women, hailing from five different states, united by our shared passion for the outdoors. We embarked on this journey, not just to hunt birds, but to forge bonds that extended far beyond the field. We hunted side-by-side, shared valuable lessons, erupted in laughter, celebrated our successes together, and even tackled the bird cleaning process as a team. Embracing spontaneity, we also threw in an afternoon of fly fishing for trout, as the opportunity presented itself. From the initial awkward stumbles learning how to cast a fly rod, to shared giggles over hopelessly tangled lines, and the meticulous process of changing out flies, we discovered something far greater than just trout and pheasant. We unearthed a profound sense of connection – a connection to the tranquil waters, the expansive fields, the present moment, and most importantly, to one another. The experience of immersing ourselves in nature alongside such remarkable women, cultivating what feels like lifelong friendships, and creating a tapestry of cherished memories, will forever hold a cherished place in our hearts.

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful reflection. Your words honestly capture everything we hope these trips become… not just a hunt, not just an itinerary, but a space where women show up for each other, try new things, laugh through the chaos, and walk away feeling connected in a way that stays with them. The Iowa pheasant trip was truly special. Watching eight women from all over the country step into the field as strangers and leave as friends is the kind of magic we never take for granted. The spontaneous fly fishing, the tangled lines, the teamwork around the bird cleaning table, the shared wins… it all came together in the best possible way. We’re so grateful you were part of this group and for the heart you brought to the experience. These memories, and these friendships, are exactly why we do what we do. We can't wait to see you on another trip!

From start to finish this trip was fantastic! The encouragement from the mentors and attendees created such a positive and supportive environment for someone who has never bird hunted before. This was my first trip with Her Wilderness, but it won't be my last!

By Sarah W for NORTH DAKOTA PHEASANT HUNT CLINIC 101 on Oct 28, 2025

Thank you so much for this! It means a lot to hear that your first bird hunt with us felt positive, supportive, and full of encouragement. That’s exactly the environment we hope to create, especially for women trying something brand new. We’re so happy your first Her Wilderness trip was a fantastic experience from start to finish, and even happier to hear it won’t be your last. Can’t wait to see you on another adventure!

Spent the day on the Oregon Coast bottom fishing & crabbing… and even got the bonus of salmon fishing. 🌊🦀🎣 I’ve always been intimidated by salmon fishing, but this trip gave me the nudge to step out of my comfort zone — and it ended up being the best part. Amanda kept everything so easygoing and well-coordinated, and Branden was an incredible guide — patient, supportive, and full of knowledge that made the whole experience even better. Couldn’t have asked for a more fun, memorable trip.

By Kendra W for OREGON CRABBING & BOTTOM FISHING on Oct 08, 2025

Thank you so much for sharing this! We love hearing how the Oregon Coast trip pushed you just enough out of your comfort zone in the best way. Salmon fishing can definitely feel intimidating, so it’s awesome to hear it ended up being your favorite part of the day. Amanda loved coordinating this one, and our guide will be thrilled to hear your kind words. He’s truly one of the best! Patient, knowledgeable, and such a solid guide to learn from. We’re so glad the day felt fun, easygoing, and memorable. Can’t wait to adventure with you again!

I was very excited to see a local trip to me in Wisconsin! Accommodations were comfortable, the guide was absolutely amazing and our coordinator Bri was very knowledgeable. Between Bri and the our guide Nick, I felt like all of our questions were answered and we learned soo much!! It was my first trip with HW and I’m already looking forward to my next one!

Thank you so much for sharing this! We were so excited to bring a trip to Wisconsin, and it means a lot to hear it was a great fit for you. We’re happy the accommodations felt comfortable and that Bri and that the guide made you feel supported the whole way! Hearing that you learned a ton on your first HW trip and are already looking forward to the next one… that’s the best feedback we could ask for. We can’t wait to adventure with you again!
