- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Join SheJumps, Alta Community Enrichment and the Alta Peruvian Lodge for our Wild Skills Basics day camp!
SheJumps' Wild Skills youth events teach young girls the survival and technical skills they need for outdoor adventuring. These skills can be applied in any season or region and include first aid, navigation and shelter building. Our events encourage girls to learn new skills, take on challenges and think creatively which develops perseverance and fosters confidence.
Our goal is to see girls (ages 6-13) learning, having fun and connecting in an encouraging environment with amazing instruction and support from mentors. We want Wild Skills to be an experience they will remember, one that will spark a lifetime of passion for the outdoors and will remind them that they are capable of anything.

Everything we do is mission-based and is designed to create opportunities to Jump In, Jump Up, and Jump Out. This is your chance to get involved with the life you’ve always dreamed of--and share the one you’re living--with females in your local community and all over the world! We are here to create and share the new "cover girls;" the new inspiration of what it means to "jump" to reach your highest potential.
Our 'Get the Girls Out!’Program focuses on connecting girls and women in our communities with inspiring and dedicated female outdoor enthusiasts.SheJumps Youth Initiatives are geared towards building life skills; empowering ownership and confidence through exposure to positive female role models, supportive communities and the outdoors . These programs exist to give girls and young women the opportunity to know what it’s like to have dirt under their feet, sun on their cheeks, and wind in their hair.
Our Outdoor Education programs focus on providing technical skills for all abilities and endeavors in the outdoors. This is our way of establishing and sharing our mission. All Initiatives facilitate educational opportunities that cater to the specific needs of each community.
