Meet The Wilderness was founded in 1974 with the simple purpose of helping youth in a wilderness setting.  The Wilderness Trip is our signature week long program that incorporates team building, rock climbing, backpacking, peak ascent, solo time, and wilderness skills.  Through these insight oriented experiences, the particpants will learn a variety of life skills, in a safe and supportive environment.  All of our trips take place in Wilderness Areas in the breath-taking central Rockies.  We can provide all the necassary equipment, just bring yourself!
