FAQ

Do I have to be athletic to participate?

Athleticism is not a prerequisite. Our programs focus more on the group dynamics and self-confidence side of outdoor adventure and less on the physical challenge. However, if your group desires, we can create a physically as well as mentally demanding adventure for you.

Will I be forced to do the activities?

We use the “challenge by choice” philosophy. Our facilitators encourage you to move beyond your perceived limitations while respecting your decision on how far to move outside your comfort zone. Cooperation and mutual support, rather than competition and physical prowess are emphasized. Although the program may be physically demanding at times, each person chooses his or her challenges.

Is it safe?

Your personal safety is always our foremost concern. We are a member of the Association for Challenge Course Technology which is dedicated to safety in the ropes course industry. All activities occur in a safe and supportive atmosphere. While there are inherent risks in any outdoor adventure activity our facilitators are continuously monitoring all participants and the environment. The course and all equipment are examined before each program and during additional regularly scheduled inspections.

What should I wear?

Your day will be spent outside. Dress according to the weather. We suggest comfortable, active wear such as shorts, t-shirts, and tennis shoes. Please, no sandals, short shorts or spaghetti straps. Don’t forget your suntan lotion and sunglasses.
