Mountain Academy - 8am-4pm
Mountain Academy is a one day summer program that is run in conjunction with Mountain Pride. This event is an annual summer "academy" where people meet and celebrate their mountain sports and mountain culture. We offer several introductory courses including intro to hiking, trail running, rock climbing, mountain biking and white water kayaking.
The program is open to 2SLGBTQ+ folks and allies from age 15 years+, and there are up to 65 spots available. All sports are offered at introductory level, with a possibility for intermediate groups based on participant abilities. No previous experience in the activity is required. Every activity is offered as a “challenge by choice”, accessible to most bodies and paced by the participant's needs. The paddling course is run in conjunction with the Revelstoke Paddling Association. The mountain biking course is run in partnership with Shred Sisters.
