Underway Outdoor Adventure
The mission of the Underway Outdoor Adventure Program is to provide shared adventure and individual
growth through experiential education and adventure based learning. Underway uses group processes
to help participants increase self-confidence and self reliance as well as awareness of self and
the environment. Individual or group experiences are not measured by end results, but by the
attempt by an individual or group to attain challenges that they have set forth for themselves.
Underway Outdoor Adventure courses can be designed to meet specific needs, goals, and interests of educational,
social, therapeutic, and private organizations. In keeping with our philosophy and capabilities, these
courses generally last from a half day to 10 days or longer. The amount of time you spend for a program
will be based on your goals.
We have a long history offering our services to schools, churches, the University, community, and
business groups. Our successful history has made it possible for us to offer our services throughout
North America. Programs include rock climbing, high ropes course, teams courses, caving, canoeing,
backpacking, campouts, and various outdoor education programs to meet your group's needs.
