What Outward Bound Requires of You
Outward Bound outlines demands for courses including medical histories and health insurance, with liability coverage and risk notices. Instructors assess forms to confirm ability to carry 40 to 60 pound packs on rugged terrain, and students should train to walk or run specific mile paces. The program advises healthier eating and avoiding alcohol and smoking, while offering courses for people with disabilities and medical conditions. Contact the national office at (800) 243-8520 for details.
