Our Wilderness Education Programming for youth and adults emphasizes hands on, experiential learning experiences in the rich and diverse environment of Southeast Alaska. Learning opportunities abound here where the coastal rainforest meets the Pacific Ocean. The abundant marine and terrestrial landscapes, combined with Native and European history, is an ideal setting for experiential learning. Through direct experience and critical analysis, students increase knowledge and understanding of the world around them and develop crucial academic, social, and life skills. Observing and studying the complex relationships of the natural world - whether through the lens of a microscope or from the seat of a canoe - helps students understand their own relationships with themselves, others, and the world around them.

We offer three types of Wilderness Education programs: FLOAT school, Adult Wilderness Education programming, and Contract Education Programs. Read on and find out which program could work for you.
