Outward Bound Wilderness has been teaching outdoor wilderness courses in the US for over 40 years. Outdoor education courses facilitate learning by experience in the wilderness "classroom".

     There is so much to learn in the outdoors.  Not only about nature, the environment, science, and proper wilderness skills, but also about one's self.  An outdoor course can help anyone discover hidden personal strengths, learn to set and achieve goals as well as work better on a team and be a better leader.  It is truly amazing what the wilderness has to offer.

     At Outward Bound Wilderness outdoor courses are typically focused around one or more activities.  The activities we specialize in are backpacking, canoeing, canyoneering, desert backpacking, dogsledding, mountaineering, rafting, rock climbing, sailing, sea kayaking and snowboarding.   However, the outdoor course activities are only one part of the course. The outdoor course instructors plan other challenges into the trip that foster personal growth.  Some examples of these challenges include solo-time, leading the group, being in charge of creating camp,  being in charge of food and water detail, being in charge of navigating, a final challenge, and often times a service element. Every course is different depending on location, activity, season, the specific course members, and instructors, but you can expect to come back with much more than you left with.
