REGISTRATION OPEN: Ascend Summer Trips

Ascend Wilderness Experience is excited to announce that registration is now open for ALL of Ascend’s teen, youth, and adult wilderness trips, with a quick turnaround for two early-season opportunities over Memorial Day and into the first week of June.

Kicking things off is our Teen Marble Mountains Stewardship Trip this Memorial Weekend (May 23–25), where 12–15 teen interns will rehabilitate the Let’Er Buck and Stanshaw trails within the McCash Fire footprint. This important work will prepare the trails for stock access, supporting continued restoration efforts in partnership with Six Rivers National Forest staff and the Bigfoot Trail Alliance. This trip is a catered car-camping style trip.

Trips are free, provide everything necessary, including gear, food, transportation, and trained guidance. Teen internships offer resume-building skills alongside peers and an appreciation stipend. Spaces are limited for both trips, and early registration is strongly encouraged.

Lunch at AMS is about more than just a meal.

It’s time to refuel with wholesome, nutritious food, catch up with friends, and enjoy a break in the day.

We’re proud to serve our students meals made with whole foods and even prouder of the energy and connection we see around these tables every day. 🍎🥪🐾

A heartwarming moment... students have chosen to read a beloved book from their elementary school days to one another during lunch. Can anyone guess which one? Clifford, The Big Red Dog. Wishing these precious moments last a little longer.
