Outdoor Program

Our Mission 

The Outdoor Program is a non-profit service organization dedicated to providing the university community with education and resources for wilderness-based, human powered outdoor and adventure activities. We promote teamwork, leadership, and growth through environmentally sound experiences.

Trips and Activities 

We offer a wide variety of services and activities to the University of Idaho community such as:

• Instructional Trips
• Cooperative Trips
• Rental Equipment
• Outdoor Information Center
• Resource Material
• Trip Planning Assistance

Cooperative trips are cost sharing. Participants supply their own food and personal equipment through rental or purchase. Required pre-trip meetings are held prior to the trip to work out trip details. Listed fees are for transportation, group gear, and instruction if it is provided.

How to Participate

Registration for trips is taken in person at the Outdoor Program Office in the Student Recreation Center (SRC). Each posted trip sheet lists specific information about the  trip including the time and place of the required pre-trip planning meeting.  Non - U of I students may be charged an additional fee for certain trips, which will be posted on the sign-up sheet.
