Where to Go Camping In and Around Pittsburgh

Listen Later

If you want to go camping, where should you start? We’re back with Marcus Shoffner, founder of the Outdoor Inclusion Coalition, talking about favorite destinations in and around the city, his tips and tricks for a good experience, ways to borrow and learn how to use the right gear, and other low-stress ideas to get you started. Plus, an update on the overnight camping pilot he started in Riverview Park!

Want to hear more about inclusivity in outdoor spaces? Check out our previous conversation with Marcus.
