With the wilderness as our catalyst, we reveal potential, inspire hope, and heal families. We believe it. We live it.
This is our mission statement. The field guide is the person who sees our students every day and directly facilitates the healing process. As a Field Guide, you will get to know our students and deliver the best program possible to them. This includes creating a safe, healthy, and supervised environment, mentoring, and working as a team. Teach students how to create their own bowdrill fire set and build the group's shelters from tarps, visit petroglyphs and ghost towns, peak mountains, and watch herds of mustang as the sun rises.
As our Field Guide, you will join one of our two shifts that continually swap back and forth, working 8 day shifts in the backcountry in a small group of at-risk teenagers with 2-3 other guides. We have two types of groups that you can work with:
1) Our RedCliff groups, which generally have 8 students each, live primitively and nomadically. Our students join an existing group when they are admitted and stay in the back
