What Do We Do?
|
Unlike other clubs on the DU campus, the Alpine Club offers trips in multiple facets of the outdoor industry. We rock climb, mountain bike, ski, snowboard, ice climb, horseback ride, dog sled, snowshoe, and white water raft. Our annual trip lists are always dynamic and changing because of our ability to offer a variety of outdoor adventures.
In addition, the Alpine Club is able to fund trips that make once-in-a-lifetime experiences incredibly affordable for a college student. Ever wanted to try out ice climbing at a world renown ice park? Or take a weekend trip to guided skiing, steep terrain, and deep powder? How about going to Moab, Utah and climbing, biking, and hiking among some of the most interesting rock formations you will ever see? We can offer that at a fraction of the cost of what it would cost for you to do that on your own. Finally, the Alpine Club offers on-campus events including film premiers, speakers working in the outdoor industry, clinics, and contests. To put it simply, the DU Alpine Club provides it all, for all levels, at the best price possible. We also follow all university safety and risk management guidelines to ensure the safest experience for all students, advised by the Division of Athletics & Recreation and its professional full-time staff. |
