Experience the thrills of Colorado's wild side on this action-packed outdoor adventure which combines high adrenaline climbing and rafting with the growth opportunities of backcountry living.

Our fast-paced trip wastes no time getting started as we surge down Clear Creek's Class III and IV whitewater rapids, an outstanding way to connect with new friends. Next, we backpack in San Isabel National Forest to learn wilderness camping skills among snow-capped peaks and pristine alpine lakes.

Professional guides teach us rock climbing near Buena Vista, Colorado, covering essential safety techniques such as belaying and rappelling. Climbs are geared towards all ability levels. A second climbing trip is planned with Colorado Mountain School's world class guides including a 500-foot multi-pitch climb!

Gear up for more heart-pumping whitewater, this time on the world-renowned Arkansas River. This trip combines some of Colorado's best whitewater with spectacular scenery and riverside camping. The remote Never Summer Wilderness is the backdrop for our last backpack, as we practice and perfect the wilderness skills we learned on our previous trek. A service project will give us a chance to give back to our natural inheritance.
