Any NOLS grads out there? There are a lot of shared values amongst us! Wondering if there could be a NOLS/OB trip sometime?

It is the National Outdoor Leadership School. They are based out of Wyoming but have facilities and semesters all over the world from Patagonia to India, the Tetons, Mexico, Alaska... all over! Mine was in Washington and Canada where we summited Mt. Baker, rock climbed, sailed and backpacked. NOLS teaches LNT courses and has many of the same stewardship principals as OB so it seems like a place grads would be involved.

When I looked NOLS up I wished it was an option in the Stone Age when I was in school; but we pretty much rubbed two rocks together for fire back then ;)

Mt Baker captivates me, from the Seattle area (South) it is uniform and pointy, looking at it from the Western side it looks completely different. View of Baker from Lummi Island…

Great shot of Baker! It is a beautiful place indeed. We backpacked through the Pasayten Wilderness and it's beautiful country. I moved to Texas six years ago from Northern California and not a day goes by that I don't miss the PNW. Mountaineering on Bakers glaciers and hitting the summit above the clouds was breathtaking!
