On his month long trip his training included wilderness trekking and camping in the Colorado Rockies, an introduction to rock climbing, and trekking and traveling in the dessert. These opportunities allowed him to learn further develop his wilderness and trekking skills while having a chance to learn about the places where our clients live and recreate. An invaluable skill in the field. Also during his month long trip Palden had the opportunity to partake in a whitewater kayak and inflatable raft course.
