Bolinas Stewards
Tahoe National Forest
On this backpacking trip for teens from the Bolinas-Stinson Young Stewards of the Land Program, students swam in clear mountain lakes, gained essential backpacking skills, and reflected on their lives together. Our Guides engaged group members in nature connection and mindfulness practices that fostered reverence and gratitude for Earth.
The Way We Walk
Outdoor Education Expeditions.
We offer multi-day trips for youth groups & school groups in grades K-12. Our guides are committed to fostering leadership development, group cohesion, and opportunities for deep nature connection. We teach technical outdoor leadership skills in tandem with mindfulness practices so that each participant's capacity to connect with humanity, Earth, and self in strengthened during our time together. Craft a trip that meets your group's needs. We'll discuss your group's goals and how to meet them in a developmentally appropriate manner.
Imagination. Participation. Commitment.
We approach outdoor leadership with a trauma-sensitive lens and keen eye for fostering social equity in groups. Our approach to group facilitation in the outdoors stems from the "Imagination-Participation-Commitment" (IPC) model designed by Partners for Youth Empowerment, which maintains that when people use their imagination/creativity, they participate willingly, and when people participate willingly they are more likely to commit to the group process.
