To celebrate a summer of women in the outdoors, we're "touring" the U.S. with Monica Ortega, the host of the adventure travel series Monica Goes. Follow along with us throughout the months of July and August while Monica circles the country in search of adventure.

In this episode of Monica Goes, Monica saddles up in the Superstition Mountains in search of the Wild West of her youth. Yes, that's right: As a former saloon girl, Monica is a wily veteran in the ways of the Old West (with just one high-caliber exception). Join as she camps among the saguaros, explores Goldfield Ghost Town, and climbs Superstition Mountain with her pup, Millie, in tow.

 


Follow along as Monica tours the nation in search of adventure.

Next week, Monica climbs to Devil's Bridge in Sedona, Arizona.

 

Monica Goes was established in 2014 to remind us that you don't need to be an expert or an adrenaline junkie to go on epic adventures. Being afraid of everything, Monica's goal was to show people you don't need to let your fears hold you back from doing something you love. If she can do it, then anyone can! Read more about Monica and Monica Goes at MonicaGoes.com. Find this and every episode of Monica Goes on YouTube, and don't forget to subscribe!
