Course Description:
'' Imagine mastering two skills in two very different wilderness environments, the stunning canyons of Wyoming and the whitewater of Utah’s Green River.
The climbing section in either Sinks Canyon outside Lander, Wyoming or Vedauwoo near Laramie, Wyoming explores granite, limestone and sandstone rock as well as stunning canyon scenery. You’ll learn movement on rock, knots, rope handling, belaying, anchors, protection placement, traditional and sport climbing systems, rappelling, and risk management. If you are ready, experience the thrill of being on the sharp end of the rope while lead climbing.
The other component of your course will take you through Green River’s Desolation and Gray canyons, where you’ll master rowing oar boats and captaining paddle rafts and learn to steer a whitewater kayak through class I-III+ rapids. You’ll live and travel within the canyon’s sheer sandstone walls rimmed with sage and piñon pine, experiencing what it takes to organize and lead your own river trips.
