"Established in 1973 and now entering its thirty-sixth year, Wilderness Ventures has
grown to become the most widely recognized and experienced multi-environmental
wilderness program for young adults throughout the world.
"Each summer, a variety of expeditions embark upon sixteen- to forty-two–day
programs designed to teach wilderness skills, leadership techniques, and respect
for the natural landscape. These goals are accomplished within a noncompetitive,
nurturing environment in which students gain self-confidence through
challenging activities and attain a lifelong appreciation for the spectacular
resources and beauty of wilderness."
