Colorado Outward Bound School

OUTWARD BOUND MISSION: To change lives through challenge and discovery. "There is more in the company than the company knows. If the company can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of the company's lives the company will be unwilling to settle for less." Kurt Hahn, Outward Bound Founder For 55 years, Colorado Outward Bound School (COBS) has bee... n delivering challenging outdoor adventure programs for people of all ages and walks of life. Every Outward Bound course is built around a progression that delivers powerful life lessons by encouraging participants to safely and confidently step outside their comfort zones while traveling in spectacular wilderness areas. The distinction - training through rather than for - is at the essence of the Outward Bound dynamic. The mountains and desert provide training that no institute or university can offer. These landscapes, in tandem with Outward Bound principles, teach the technical skills necessary for survival, but also teach the relevant skills necessary for life. A large part of Outward Bound focuses on group dynamics and development. However, it can be a very personal experience as well. By conquering their own challenges, participants discover their true potential and realize they are capable of more than they ever imagined.
