Many of our programs can be selected a la cart style and combined in several unique ways to best serve your goals. For example, combine indoor rock climbing, team building, and the American Mountaineering Museum for a day-long program exploring what it takes to climb a mountain. Contact YEP to discuss your goals and design a unique field trip for your students. Programs can take place at your school, at the American Mountaineering Center in Golden, or at a local open space or park.
