North Cascades Wilderness School Open

[kamatz]

Hello to all,

 

The North Cascades Wilderness School is now open and taking reservations for the summer programs. We are a small family owned school on a 22 acre campus located in Mazama, WA at the upper end of the Methow Valley offering wilderness based educational programs for youth 11-17 yrs of age and adults.

 

We are not a traditional summer camp but rather a combination of educational and adventure programs striving to accomplish one objective- to unite youth to nature through two approaches. First: enhancing their awareness of their natural surroundings through education from the naturalist (animal and plant identification, animal tracking, forest sounds), environmentalist (principles of forest stewardship) and indigenous survivalist (shelter, water, fire) perspective. Second: experiencing the adventure activities offered by nature by learning the skills for rock and ice climbing, glacier traveling, hiking, backpacking, rafting, canoeing and orienteering.

 

Currently there are only a few programs but we hope to expand to offer programs for adults and day programs for the local kids of the Methow Valley. All programs will focus heavily on naturalism education

 

Whether you are new to the wilderness or have experience we guarantee the knowledge and experiences gained through our program will unite you with nature, positively impact you and leave you with a greater appreciation for nature and what it has to offer.

 

Please pass the word on to anyone you know with kids 11-17. We need all the help we can get.

Thanks,

 

Josh
