Trips | Classes | Events
The Outdoor Program offers trips and classes all year round. Whether backpacking in the desert, running the Alberton Gorge, cross country skiing at Lolo Pass, or learning how to climb - we've got you covered! In addition to trips and classes, we also host special events throughout the academic year.
Classes and events are open to the public, while trips are limited to the UM community.
