The Community ft. LGBT Outdoors. Muir Woods National Monument.

Today we trek into Muir Woods National Monument to explore the decaying community of Druid Heights, once a thriving hub for artists, philosophers and those who felt they couldn’t find acceptance in the world. We look back on what it once was and discuss the controversy surrounding its current preservation, or lack of. But we aren’t alone! We are joined by Justin Yoder, founder of LGBT Outdoors. After our tour of Druid Heights, Justin tells us more about his organization, what inspired him to create a space where the LGBTQ+ community could connect with the outdoors and one another and all of their fun events that are taking place around the country. Love and compassion should extend beyond care and concern for wild spaces - it should be granted to everyone we share it with. Happy Pride Month!
