Baldwin and HP: Leadership






"Even Noah got no salary for the first 6 months partly on account of the weather and partly because he was learning navigation." Mark Twain

Every day, each student has a role in making their course work. We practice rotating leadership here at Outward Bound, so that people who don't normally don't have an opportunity to be in a prominent role do so. Some of the other roles include: chef, navigator, environmentalist, journalist, secret friend and more. The Outward Bound instructors give tasks to the leaders of the day, who then communicate this to their crew. In the video above, the navigator is sharing the route with the rest of his crew.

There are 2 crews at the high challenge course today, 3 crews who are visiting the low challenge course and 2 crews who are out backpacking. We have all enjoyed, and been thankful the warmer, drier weather this week.
