  • We offer custom programs for groups larger than 12, but need additional support to make them run smoothly as our ideal student to teacher ratio is 1 teacher : 6 students.

    In some cases, parents can fill this role; however, depending on the subject, another outdoor education expert may be contracted to provide support.

    Please Contact Us for pricing and to inquire about arranging a custom program for a large youth group.

Please note that this pricing is for youth-only programs. Parents are welcome to join their children during our programs. Please visit our Custom Adult Programs page to see pricing for adults or largely mixed-age groups. Pricing is subject to change depending on the location, group needs, or activities to accommodate scouting new locations, mileage, additional guides, equipment, food, supplies, etc.

Let children walk with Nature, let them see the beautiful blendings and communions of death and life, their joyous inseparable unity, as taught in woods and meadows, plains and mountains and streams of our blessed star, and they will learn that death is stingless indeed, and as beautiful as life.

- John Muir

We also offer custom programs for adults

If you’re looking for a custom program for your work function, gathering of friends, party, or have something else entirely in mind, we’d be happy to discuss options for your group. Kids are welcome to attend with parents or adult guardians, but the focus for adult programs is primarily for adults learning.
