Course Location
This course will be held in Canon City Colorado at the Journey Quest Rafting Royal Gorge Office. Class will take place in the large pavilion on the property. This pavilion has a roof, but no side walls (think pinic shelter). Please come prepared with layers and rain gear, just in case of challenging weather. May in Canon City is generally beautiful with daytime temperatures in the mid 70's and nighttime temperatures in the mid 40's. From time to time, afternoon showers roll in.
The course venue is only a few miles from the Royal Gorge Bridge and Park, white water rafting, rock climbing, mountain biking, hiking, and both paid and dispersed camping!
After registering for the course, students will be provided with more course logistics and lodging/camping information on their Desert Mountain Medicine student account.
