About Us

OUR MISSION
"Our primary mission is to develop outdoor leadership and teaching skills within the student-oriented environment of the University."

TRANSPORTATION
The cooperative nature of our trips is apparent in the transportation. On most OA trips, the participants provide their own transportation. By sharing and carpooling, we keep the costs of the trip down. Unless specifically stated that OA provides the transportation, all the transportation logistics and expenses will be the responsibility of the participants and will be arranged at the pre-trip meeting.

WHITEWATER
Outdoor Adventures is your window to the wet and wild world of whitewater rafting and kayaking at its best. OA runs day trips in the nearby Class III whitewater of the South Fork of the American River and the more challenging Class IV North Fork. Join us for a weekend in the Siskiyou Mountains for a Klamath Wilderness trip or Class V whitewater on the Cal Salmon. We also rent whitewater gear to aid you in preparing your own trip. We have the latest information on river conditions, weather reports and guidebooks. In addition, we have trips and instructional courses every weekend, and a resource center of maps and guidebooks for planning your next adventure. Stop in and check us out.

TRIPS & CLASSES
All of OA’s trips and classes are cooperative in style and participants learn by doing. The pre-trip meeting is an important element in this style of trip. You have an opportunity to meet your fellow adventurers, to participate in the development of the logistics, and to ensure that you arrive on the day of your trip prepared for an exciting adventure.

RENTAL CENTER
OA offers top-quality rental equipment at great prices for all your outdoor needs. With a wide selection of topographical maps and local outdoor books, we are also a great place to get information on that next trip you might be planning. Come in today and see what OA can offer you!
