Yellowstone Expeditions (MYE) is an experiential education
program for motivated youth aged 15-18 from southern
California, south west Montana and other select locations
in the US.
MYE’s vision is to enrich and
expand the lives and vision of young people, and
to develop the next generation of leaders through
adventure, service, personal challenge, teamwork,
and access to higher education.
The first phase is a summer wilderness
program located in south-west Montana. This 25-day
program, the Wilderness Challenge Course (WCC), focuses on leadership, self discovery and
sustainability; and fosters critical thinking and
an ethic of service in participants.
WCC alumni are then eligible
to attend a range retreats and
workshops on the next phase of our program - MYExplore, and to apply for further leadership training
courses and wilderness program internships. They
are also able to apply for a range of scholarships
through Montana Yellowstone Expeditions Foundation.
Successful applicants attend the Montana
WCC on a full scholarship, and all technical clothing and equipment with be supplied to students for the duration of the course.
