“We bring veterans together using humor and camaraderie to improve mental health and prevent veteran suicide.”

The hike is only for Veterans, Active Duty, National Guard, and Reservists.

Participants hike approximately 8.5 miles around Boise while wearing Silkies (ranger panties, marine PT shorts, etc.), combat boots, and a ruck (not required). We also ask family members, friends, and the community for their support through donations and sponsorships, and invite them to register as volunteers or join us at stops.

Irreverent Warriors is PREVENTING veteran suicide using unconventional therapy. Veterans are different and therefore use different methods of coping. In the face of tragedy, a veteran is more likely to use humor as a coping mechanism than anything else.
