The “Luminescent Mountain Goats”… a rock band coming to a venue near you… 😆

Last week, campers (entering grades 4-6) in WRI’s Rock On! Camp took themselves to new heights while rock climbing… and made themselves a couple album covers to boot.

[Wenatchee River Institute @WenRiverInst]

Campers spent one day developing their skills at Riverfront Rock Gym and then spent two days outside climbing with Northwest Mountain School. They also got to know the cool rocks around the area! It was great to see students learn and grow throughout the week.

[Wenatchee River Institute @WenRiverInst]

Join us tomorrow evening in the Red Barn or via Zoom to listen to Campfire Stories. Hear from the editors and guest, Allie “Taogoi” Donaldson, to hear some poems and lessons learned while hiking the PCT.

This summer, WRI began a new program partnered with Leavenworth Outdoor Center. Participants were naturalists on the river as they went for a relaxing paddle.

These wonderful photos were provided by Dave Masuda.

People were able to see nature from another perspective, catching glimpses of wildlife, including bear, deer, minx, fish, and many birds! They also learned about plants in the riparian zone and our watershed.
