Hey Folks, many have heard of Outward Bound, an organization started in the '40s to help mature a young population going to war.
Outward Bound has created 6-day adventure courses for veterans of OEF/OIF... FOR FREE, including travel/air fare!!
Whitewater rafting, mountaineering, dog sledding, ocean kayaking, and several others!!
I've done 1 course and am about to go on my 2nd... FOR FREE!! And they have slots open for their upcoming course in 1 week, as well as another in 3 weeks!
http://www.outwardbound.org - Right side, "Program" field, select "Veterans," (and deselect "Wilderness")... That's it. SIGN UP! Live the adventure!

I'm getting in on this. I need some mountaineering courses before my Denali expedition. The more experience, the better.

It's a great program for it's intended purpose, but I wouldn't expect any kind of assistance in developing further outdoor skills. I mean if you've already started training then you have likely already done more for yourself than anything this 6-day course will show you.
Enjoy nonetheless!
