This course is designed to provide a supportive

a three-week journey of outdoor leadership and
skills development. The expedition will include
Whitewater Kayaking on the South Fork of the
American River, Backpacking in Yosemite National
Park and Rock Climbing at Lover’s Leap near Lake
Tahoe, California. Group members are expected to
participate in food planning, contribute to discussions,
perform camp duties, as well as co-facilitation
of a natural history and skills based presentation.
The group will also complete a one-day service proj-ect

emphasis placed on expedition mentality and
“Leave No Trace” ethics. The physical and mental
challenges, combined with a small group dynamic,
provide an amazing space for learning.
