Woman Sierra backpacking groups

Does anyone know about any all-woman backpacking groups that do Sierra trips? I'm open to a group that goes other places but Sierra-centric would be better!
Thanks!

Call of the Wild, founded by Carole Latimer has a great reputation, not only for their trips, but for their food. (Carole wrote Wilderness Cuisine, my favorite backpacking cookbook.)

Here's their website:

I noticed they only have one Sierra trip listed on the site so I don't know if their focus has changed. They used to do many more from a few days to two weeks.

I can't make any personal recommendations, but I do know that such trips exist. My wife and I passed such a group last year near Garnet Lake in the Ansel Adams Wilderness...
