San Juan Mountains Backpacking
Wetterhorn Basin, CO
Aug 5—Aug 12, 2024
Embarked on a transformative 5-day, 4-night journey through the awe-inspiring San Juan Mountains of Southern Colorado.
The Wetterhorn Basin, nestled in the heart of the San Juans, was renowned for its pristine lakes, lush wildflower meadows, majestic granite peaks, and panoramic vistas that took your breath away.
As we explored this natural wonderland, we focused on leadership development, teamwork, and personal growth while strengthening our connection to faith and community. Daily dhikr, prayer, Qur’an recitation, and Islamic classes nourished our spirits as we immersed ourselves in the beauty of Allah’s creation. We joined for an adventure that left us inspired, empowered, and deeply connected to our fellow participants and the natural world.
