Course Description:

'' Yellowstone National Park’s wild eastern neighbor is Wyoming’s Absaroka (Ab-sor-ka) Range, a vast wilderness region with some of the most remote territory in the Lower 48.

You’ll travel through broad river valleys surrounded by sheer glacier-carved cliffs, camp under towering conifers, and hike across alpine plateaus where the tallest plants are only a few inches high. You’ll fly-fish for large cutthroat trout, effectively ford high mountain rivers, practice GPS and compass navigation, and learn how to camp and travel in bear country. Along with grizzlies, other fauna you’re likely to see are eagles, bighorn sheep, elk, moose, black bears, coyote, and recently re-introduced gray wolves.

For students craving remote, rugged land filled with wildlife, this is your course. In the Absarokas, you will live the lessons you need to skillfully travel in the mountains long after your course ends.
