Peak Northwest

Oregon organization offers outdoor adventures for people of all abilities


Listen Later

Everybody should have access to outdoor recreation, regardless of their abilities.

That’s the mission of Adventures Without Limits, an Oregon nonprofit that takes people outside and finds creative solutions to whatever barriers they may be facing. On this week’s episode of Peak Northwest, we talk to Anna Eick, program coordinator for the organization.

The group has a wide variety of outings through the year, including hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, kayaking and whitewater rafting, Eick said. The trips are open not only to people of all abilities, but also all ages, genders, ethnicities and socioeconomic statuses.

Here are some highlights from this week’s show:

  • Adventures Without Limits has been a part of the community for nearly 30 years.
  • Some of the most popular excursions they offer.
  • How does the organization adapt to so many different needs?
  • How does somebody know if Adventures Without Limits is a good fit?
