Enjoy a night of indoor climbing at a rock gym in Portland Thursday, April 7! If daunting, dirty boulders are maybe not your thing, join Outdoor Pursuits for a night of indoor adventuring instead! This evening excursion will be warmer, dryer, and just as fun as a day out on the rocks. Register now!
On Saturday, April 16, dive into a day of surf, salt, and seriously rad people on the Surfing Day Trip. Whether you're testing the water for the first time or are ready to hang ten from the get go, join OP for a day of frolicking on the Oregon Coast. Spots are limited, so sign up soon!
Though these trips are already full, but students can join the waitlist for the spring break rafting trip, a stand up paddleboard trip, or the summit series multi-day excursion!
