With the outdoors as your classroom, learn to thrive as a crew.
Your Outdoor Classroom
You don't have to travel far to enjoy tranquility of nature at our Leadville Mountain Campus. Our Frontcountry Expeditions take place at our established campsites where you'll get to enjoy camping and cooking meals outdoors. Enjoy the calmness of the forest as you set-up camp and prepare dinner alongside your peers. Bond with your group around the campfire at night. Through teambuilding programming and guided reflection your group will return home with skills for life including teamwork, leadership, and environmental stewardship.
