Want to get a physical, emotional and intellectual boost . . . and have fun at the same time? Choose to go outside. Shimmering lakes, cascading waterfalls, lazy streams, rushing rivers, and ever shifting ocean beaches reveal both the force and beauty of water. Vivid wildflowers, majestic trees, vast canyons, soaring mountain peaks and rolling valleys expose their glory. Deer, elk, wolves, bison, moose, bald eagles, marmots, big horn sheep, mountain goats, bears and more inhabiting diverse landscapes attest to the wonder of wildlife in the wild. There are many ways to see and experience the outdoors through an OUTventure. Learn more below . . .
FOR ACTIVITY SPECIFIC INSPIRATION – PICK YOUR OUTVENTURE
HIKING
Hiking allows us to slow down and soak in our surroundings with all our senses. Sweeping vistas, vibrant wildflowers, tumbling waterfalls, glimpses of wildlife and more await on the paths ahead. Nature reveals its secrets to those who chose to follow those paths.
CAMPING
Camping gets us closer to nature, challenges us to do just about everything in a different way, and gives us a break from our daily routines and stresses. In this less hectic space, we spend time with family and friends living life more simply.
BACKPACKING
Backpacking enables us to immerse ourselves in the great outdoors show. Self-reliant, we travel further and longer into the wilderness, physically and mentally taking us away from it all. A deep, transformative engagement between nature and backpacker ensues.
MOUNTAIN BIKING
Mountain biking challenges us to simultaneously focus internally and externally. The self-talk to continue on combined with the physicality of rider keeping body and bike in harmony are all consuming, allowing complete immersion in the activity.
OUTVENTURING WITH KIDS
Curiosity and imagination drive kids to explore the outdoor world with great vigor. Outdoor adventures allow kids to discover, learn about and appreciate nature as they encounter physical challenges which promote self-confidence and encourage a healthy lifestyle.
OUTVENTURING WITH DOGS
With tails wagging and eyes bright, dogs greet outdoor adventures with glee. Discovering and exploring new territory gives our dogs a fun way to get exercise. Whether chasing down a new scent or splashing in a stream, dogs teach us the simple joys of nature.
CROSS COUNTRY SKIING
Cross Country Skiing rewards us with a peaceful, invigorating glide through a wilderness wonderland. Time and distance pass as minds focus inward and breath synchronizes with rhythmic movement. At trails end bodies are spent and minds are quiet. Ready to go?
SNOWSHOEING
Backcountry Skiing disconnects us from the constraints of groomed trails, allowing free exploration of less accessible wilderness areas. Heightened senses scan for potential snow perils as landscapes simultaneously dictate routes and spur imaginations. Ready to go?
BACKCOUNTRY SKIING
Showshoeing places us in the heart of a snow-covered, tranquil world. Floating on white stillness, we witness dreamlike scenes painted by snowflakes on the surrounding landscape. The unique scenery changes daily as the snow blanket thickens. Ready to go?
