We are thrilled to share the incredible journey that our crew embarked on during their week at Outward Bound. It was a week filled with challenges, growth, and unforgettable memories as we explored the great outdoors and built bonds that will last a lifetime.

Building Our Crew: The Heart of the Experience

At the core of this expedition was the concept of building a crew. We were not just a group of individuals; but a tight-knit team, learning to trust and support each other. Through shared experiences and challenges, we developed a deep sense of what it means to be ‘Crew’. 

A Week of Growth and Discovery

This Outward Bound experience was more than just an outdoor adventure; it was a journey of personal growth and self-discovery. We were challenged in ways we may never have been before, and they rose to the occasion with resilience, determination, and a spirit of adventure. We are incredibly proud of what they have accomplished.

The Hike: We embarked on a challenging hike through breathtaking landscapes to the top of the mountain. This wasn’t just a walk in the park; it required physical stamina, mental resilience, and teamwork. But wow! What a view at the end!

Here is where we finally saw some blue sky after two days of rain!
The best views come after the hardest climb.

Wild Camp: We spent a night under the stars after learning how to set up camp, cook meals, and appreciate the simple beauty of nature. 

Gorge Walk: The gorge walk was a highlight for many. We navigated through rocky streams, scrambled over slippery boulders, and braved the cold waters—all while supporting one another through every step. This activity not only built physical strength but also fostered trust and teamwork.

We are incredibly proud of what our crew have accomplished, and we have come away from this experience with a deeper understanding of what it means to be Crew.

Like we say at XP…‘If we get Crew right, we get everything right.’

We are two very proud crew leaders!
