Utah Backpacking and Canyoneering; Leadership and Guide Training Course

Details for "Utah Backpacking and Canyoneering; Leadership and Guide Training Course"

The Utah Desert is one of the more remote areas in the continental United States. Between Canyonlands National Park and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument there exists a landscape of red rock canyons, high mesas, lush river valleys and sandstone bluffs. This area offers varied terrain for exciting backpacking and technical canyoneering.
Picture friction climbing up a narrow sandstone slot as you navigate a desert canyon from top to bottom or turning a corner and finding a spring surrounded by green ferns, mosses and grasses in this arid land. The desert landscape is ideal for wilderness expeditions into the heart of canyon country.
This comprehensive backpacking and canyoneering course is the perfect setting to achieve your goals whether you are looking to become a professional guide, hone your technical abilities for personal adventures, or expand your leadership skills. It focuses on teaching students to be safe, efficient, knowledgeable and confident outdoor leaders in a winter mountain environment.TEST
