Adventure Pride Vinyl Decal by Mikah Meyer
“How can I show support for LGBTQ+ people in the outdoors? is a question I’m often asked" - Mikah Meyer
Listening to LGBTQ+ adventurers over the years, I’ve heard both a desire for more queer representation in outdoors culture, plus ways for allies to show their support.
So, inspired by the “Safe Space” logos seen on supportive teachers’ doors, I set out to create an “Outside Safe Space” logo. Something non-verbal that an LGBTQ+ person could wear to represent their presence, and also something allies can pin to their backpacks, stick on their water bottle, wear on themselves or post in their office, to signal that LGBTQ+ people are supported in being 100% themselves around them.
With the help of some amazing LGBTQ+ adventurers from the communities below, I’ve come up with this Outside Safe Space logo.
The tree includes:
Rainbow Flag /Trans Flag/Bi Flag/Triangles for all queer identities. Skin tone tree trunk as the foundation since all of the above exist in diverse people.
The trans and bi-colors have specifically been placed nearest the trunk, as symbolism of the role these communities played in the genesis of the queer civil rights movement, and as the largest/strongest branches, in acknowledgment of the times they have been overlooked compared to other members of the community.
All proceeds go directly back into raising awareness for this symbol as a means for representation and allyship.
Let’s build a world where everyone sees themselves, and feels safe and free to be who they are, wherever they are!

Size: 3.6" x 5 Made of white vinyl with a glossy finish.
