Montana GOOB

GOOB: Montana – $450

This trip has filled up quickly in past years, so we recommend signing up earlier than later. 

Experience a day of rafting, a day of hiking, and a day of biking in Western Montana! Each day the students break into three groups to embark on a full day excursion with upper division student leaders. One day is spent rafting down class II and III rapids in the Alberton Gorge of the Clark Fork River (Montana). Another day is spent mountain biking on the beautiful and historic Trail of the Hiawatha at Lookout Pass. This trail is not technical; however it incorporates some challenge with a long (although not steep) climb at the end. The trail is well worth the challenge though as it offers beautiful views of the Bitterroot Mountains, scenic waterfalls and several old railroad tunnels to bike through. The third day is a scenic hike to gorgeous Heart Lake located on the Montana/Idaho border. Although there are 3 different groups for the day trips, each afternoon we will re-group at base-camp to enjoy a dinner prepared by students and leaders.

After dinner each night, we will wrap up the night with fun, relaxing evening activities. We will return to campus just in time for New Student Orientation. This is a great bonding experience for the incoming students and an opportunity for them to meet upper division students.
