Experiential Wilderness Trips

Itasca Wilderness Trip
Every year the Peer Resource Program facilitates Experiential Wilderness Trips. The trips change from year to year but they are always offered during school breaks including: long weekend in the fall semester, winter break between the semesters, spring break in the spring semester, and mid-May after classes are finished.
