Over a million acres of course area
Our outdoor classroom is over a million acres and ranges from approximately 4,000’ above sea level in the red rock canyons to 11,000’ in the alpine. This region of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and Dixie National Forest comprises one of the most remote and rugged wildernesses in the United States.
