WNA Mountain Retreat
Every Year we take up to 10 Veterans on a 5 day all expenses paid mental wellness retreat to Colorado. We go over The 6 Principles to help each veteran accept their past and find a new path in life. We Do a jiu-jitsu seminar, 2024 we have a new partner in Operation Equine that will take us on a equine therapy session. Then we head out into the mountains to start the retreat portion. Friday we climb a 14er in the Colorado Rockies as a quest to find yourself on the mountain as well as leave the pass behind at the top. This is a life changing experience and we hope to see you in the mountains soon. |

Mt Marcy- Upstate NY 2019 - 7 of us got together at the base of Mt Marcy. It was a long 17 mile hike with some beautiful sites along the way.
Mt. Elbert - Highest peak in the rocky mountains 2020 - 8 veterans started at the trail head early morning on a grueling 4461 foot accent up a beautiful 4.7 mile hike up to to top of the mountain. We had some beautiful sites and amazing conversations on this hike. We also got buzzed by and F-16 at 14000 feet that came up from under us in a canyon. I highly recommend this hike.
Mt. Massive Hike - 2nd highest peak in the Rocky Mountains 2021. 10 of us started on the Mt Massive trail head around 4 am to try to catch the sun rise at a decent point on the mountain. This was a great climb with some great people.
Mt. Quandary hike July 2023 - This year 15 of us made the 6.6 mile hike to the top of Quandary at 14,271'. We stayed at a cabin in Fairplay, Colorado and this was one of our best retreats yet.
