TruAdventure to Sponsor Trip to Rocky Mountain National Park

TruAdventure will offer a week-long hiking and camping trip to Rocky Mountain National Park, July 17-24.

Designed for individuals with a thirst for adventure, but little experience, participants will take multiple guided day hikes through the Rocky Mountains. The focus of the trip will be learning the basic skills for safe and reasonable hiking and camping trips including: basic trip planning; map and compass skills; hiking technique; food planning and preparation; and other essential outdoor skills. As with any TruAdventure trip, information on the geology, biology and history of the Rocky Mountains are important components of the educational program.

Registration deadline for the trip, including full payment, is May 1. The cost for the week-long trip is $650 and includes all group gear such as tents, sleeping pads, sleeping bags, cooking gear and food for the entire week. Scholarships up to $200 are available for current Truman students who apply.
