For many of our program participants, it’s their first time camping, coming to a state park, climbing, skiing, snowboarding… and we don’t take that responsibility lightly. We want to make sure someone’s first outdoor experience with us is a positive one because we want them to feel empowered to continue trying new activities. This past weekend, Mia came out with us on her birthday weekend to camp at Barr Lake State Park and kayak on the lake, it was such a good time. Make sure you’re following our Facebook page to see events we post. If it’s your first time, don’t worry we got your back. #coblackpackers #blackpackersatbarrlake #barrlakestatepark #equityoutside

“I’m trying to provide those skills to people to empower people,” she said. “But also these are entry-level outdoor skills and Colorado has a huge outdoor economy, and so if I can give people Leave No Trace, if I can give people wilderness first response, they’re going have a better chance of breaking into the industry.”

The workshops are open to adults as well as high school-age kids across the country and they are, of course, free to attend.”

BOSS launches July 2023
