MYNA Rugged Recap

This past weekend, we had our first ever MYNA Rugged backpacking trip! A group of 15 boys hiked over 10 miles through California’s Sierra Nevada wilderness, camped at 10,000+ feet, swam in crystal clear waters, slept in tents under the gorgeous stars, cooked their own meals, disconnected from reality and technology, and spiritually re-connected with Allah SWT. And what a weekend it was!


We can't wait to have more MYNA rugged camps! Who’s ready to join us for the next one?
