Meet Juliana Gay, our 2020 Cascade Mountain School educator!

Meet Juliana Gay, our 2020 Cascade Mountain School educator!

by Mt. Adams Institute | Jun 17, 2020 | Land Stewards, Summer Camp

I grew up just outside of Portland, Oregon. Despite living in one of the most beautiful and accessible places to nature, I didn’t get into my hobbies of hiking, backpacking, and road tripping until I was a young adult. I decided to hike the Pacific Crest Trail...

Public Lands Stewards: Last Week at Camp

by Mt. Adams Institute | Oct 23, 2019 | Land Stewards

by Mt. Adams Institute | Sep 6, 2019 | Land Stewards

Public Lands Stewards: A New Year, A New System

by Mt. Adams Institute | Feb 23, 2018 | Land Stewards, Summer Camp

There is a certain personal power that possesses me and I believe it has propelled me through most of my bold, ill-advised, far-off and ultimately life-shaping experiences. That spirit goes along nicely with a sentiment from T.S. Eliot that I’ve come to own privately,...

Public Lands Stewards: 10 Years Later, Coming Full Circle

by Mt. Adams Institute | Dec 8, 2017 | Land Stewards, Summer Camp

In August, I was tagged in a Facebook post by Opal Creek Ancient Forest Center celebrating their 10th anniversary of summer backpacking trips. Through the expanse of social media, the program coordinator was commemorating the growth of the program and curious about...
