Outpost on the Zumwalt
Join a small group of writers and unplug for a week, be inspired by nature, and have the time and support to write about it. Fishtrap’s Outpost on the Zumwalt Prairie connects you with a cohort of creative writers and an experienced instructor to help guide you on your writing journey.
Author and educator CMarie Fuhrman leads the 2026 program, supported by biologist Janet Hohmann, to create an experience that uncovers new ways to interpret and interact with the natural world.
Outpost takes place on The Nature Conservancy Zumwalt Prairie Preserve, a 33,000 acre grassland in rural Wallowa County, Oregon. Instructor CMarie Fuhrman will guide workshop participants to explore new ways to invigorate your writing through discovery of the natural world.
