Step up to the Cascade Challenge

Our challenge to you—get outside and test your limits on rock, snow, mountain and water.

We support youth

Our non-profit—Cascade Leadership Challenge (CLC) sponsors Boy Scout of America venture crews and troops. We provide leadership and high adventure skills training.

Crew 310

Our youth members organize remarkable adventures in the Cascades, San Juans and beyond—mastering leadership, climbing, mountaineering, rafting and kayaking along the way.

Troop 12

We are one of the first BSA Girl Scout Troops in the United States. As we explore the Pacific NW rivers, mountains and seas, we develop leadership, relationships and scouting skills.

Training for adventure leaders

We provide the technical skills and leadership training—including Wilderness First Aid—needed to lead high adventure activities with youth rock climbing, mountaineering, sea kayaking, whitewater rafting, and backcountry travelling.

The door to adventure is open to all, regardless of ability to pay
