Semesters in the American West & Patagonia

Spend a gap semester rock climbing and backpacking while exploring environmental issues in the American West and Patagonia. Journey through these breathtaking landscapes in pursuit of outdoor adventures and get your hands dirty working on real-world conservation issues. With options to choose a rock climbing or wilderness travel focus, you will engage with these elements in three different course areas: the Sawatch mountains of Colorado, the Greater Canyonlands of Utah, and Central Patagonia.
