Registration is now open for the 12 adventure trips being offered in spring and summer 2012 with UNL Outdoor Adventures. One-, two-, four-, seven-, or nine-day trips with skis, surfboards, backpacks, canoes, and bikes are being offered. No previous outdoor experience is required. Open to UNL students, faculty, staff and the public.
Trained guides lead every trip and help prepare individuals beforehand for the adventure they will experience. Unless otherwise noted, trip prices include all technical gear, transportation, trip insurance, permits, and meals. Participants provide clothes, footwear, and personal items.
Early registration is encouraged because trips have limited enrollment. Payment plans are available for select trips. Sign up online at http://crec.unl.edu/outdoor, or visit the Outdoor Gear and Bike Shop in the Campus Rec Center. For more information, call 402-472-4777.
