REQUEST INFORMATION
The College of Idaho Outdoor Program provides students, faculty, staff, and alumni of all abilities and experience levels access to outdoor recreation, outdoor education, intermural sports, and campus recreation opportunities that emphasize skill acquisition, leadership development, community and team building, environmental awareness, risk management, stewardship, and adventure.
The Outdoor Program, supported by the ASCI, our student government, is an outdoor recreation and educational program offering classes, workshops, off-campus trips, and outdoor equipment rentals for student and staff recreational use.
For our off-campus trips, we are firm supporters of challenge by choice! So, while some of our activities are more challenging, our student trip leaders will have pre-trip meetings and instruction throughout so that anyone willing to try is encouraged to participate! All students, faculty, and staff are welcome!
Are you interested in contributing to the Outdoor Program? We are always accepting donations of lightly used outdoor equipment.
Our student-led trips are designed for everyone who has an interest in the outdoors – no previous experience is required! Trip leaders have received training and are experienced in the activity, risk management, and first aid, planning, and executing each outing.
Check Out Upcoming Trips
Come visit us in our Rental Shop located in the Winston & Diane Moore Outdoor Program Center in McCain. Whether it’s a tent, canoe, paddle board or roller blades, we have equipment to rent so that everyone at the College may enjoy the outdoors on their own.

Each spring, the College hosts a wilderness medical training course designed to provide you with the skills necessary to make critical emergency care and evacuation decisions in remote locations. Learn how to respond to trauma and care for wounds, dislocations, fractures, infections, cardiac conditions and more.
Come join us outside! Led by trained and experienced guides, the program provides access to equipment rentals, off-campus trips, and specialized courses such as rock climbing and kayaking
Here at the OP, we are always looking to take students at the College on new and exciting adventures. To do that, we work with outdoor enthusiasts from our student body to lead trips into Idaho’s outdoors and beyond. The program offers ample training and mentorship along the way, so no prior experience is necessary
No matter if you’re a vibrant creative, an athlete, an advocate or someone who clicks with just about everyone, you know your strengths. We invite you to fully embrace all that makes you uniquely you and transform it into wide-reaching impact and change.
