We want to reach out and let any of you who may be concerned know that the wildfires in Colorado are not in the vicinity of any of our course areas and no course areas have been affected. Our Leadville, CO-based team checks the fire reports several times a day and have a plan in place in case a course encounters fire, smoke, or ash while in the field.
We continue to be concerned for all of the people who have been affected by the wildfires throughout Colorado and are thankful to the firefighters and volunteers assisting in the efforts.
For more information on how Colorado Outward Bound School is prepared to deal with any issues arising from wildfires, please see The Denver Post blog below.
