OUTWARD BOUND COURSES ARE NOT GUIDED TRIPS
They are real expeditions that cross ruggedly beautiful terrain. They require participants to dig deep and discover hidden strength. After wilderness courses, students report high levels of confidence, self-esteem and teamwork skills; three times the number of students pre-course. The accomplishment is real and the feeling of success is yours to keep.
