Rock Climbing

Rock climbing can be both physically and mentally demanding as it requires both endurance and agility to overcome the obstacles and puzzles that the climbing path presents. With safety systems in place, rock climbing is a fun and rewarding sport that is as difficult as you want it to be, and as safe as any other outdoor activity.

Canyoneering

The unique red rock desert landscape presents unique challenges and breathtaking experiences. Along the winding canyon paths, we will learn climbing and rappelling techniques, knot-tying skills, and learn to interpret the difficult terrain with a map and compass— all while feeling connected to the prehistoric past that this environment presents.

Rafting

There’s nothing like the thrill of exploration felt as the group paddles the river together. We'll go rafting on some of Colorado's best rivers, including the Arkansas, Gunnison and Colorado.

Kayaking & Canoeing

In our boats, you will learn to interpret the river current, practice paddling skills and beaching your craft to explore secluded wilderness areas inaccessible by other means. One can’t help but feel like an explorer while drifting down the river, gazing upon wildlife, and basking in the sounds and smells of the surrounding nature.

Backpacking

Each Adventure offers hands-on opportunities to learn how to travel in the backcountry. Campers will pack everything they need on their backs and hike into the backcountry for multiple days.

Paddleboarding

A fun way to explore and play on the water, paddleboarding (or SUPing) is an increasingly popular adventure sport. Standing on a long surfboard and using a paddle to navigate and move around the lake, or down a lazy river - it’s very easy to learn and it’s also a great workout!

Hiking & Navigation

Campers will hike in some of Colorado's most amazing landscapes, learning how to safely travel in the backcountry and navigate from point A to point B, using maps, compasses and their surroundings.

Backcountry Cooking & Living

Practice outdoor living skills like hanging a bear bag and map reading. Students will also learn the ins and outs of backcountry cooking. Armed with a camp stove, spice kits, and basic pot set you will take a turn preparing meals for the group. We will provide ingredients to meet the needs of any dietary restriction.

Environmental Stewardship

During our Adventures we instill principles of outdoor stewardship, to be good stewards of our land while exploring.

Basecamping

Base camping allows us to set up tents and kitchen in one area which serves as a jumping-off point for multiple adventure activities. We only carry with us what we need for that specific day and we're sleeping in an established campground next to or near our van. This often means access to pit toilets or even bathrooms with running potable water. Our kitchen can be bigger with more supplies— like a double-burner propane stove, pots and pans, and access to picnic tables.

Backpacking

Campers will carry everything they need to camp in the field on their backs and hike into the wilderness to stay overnight. Our kitchen setup will be smaller and more lightweight for traveling. Nature is your bathroom and water supply!
