As an organization our initial year has been chocked full of adventure and success. We have reached 200 fans on Facebook and keep growing! We were have created a new collaborative relationship with the Winter Wildlands Alliance (WWA) and have been designated as a WWA SnowSchool, the only one in Northern Idaho! The SnowSchool is the nations largest on snow provider of winter ecology curriculum and SOLE is one of 47 providers offering this dynamic experiential curriculum.
Additionally, SOLE has now been licensed as an outdoor therapeutic program in Western Montana and we are currently accepting enrollment applications for our SOLE Journey Experiences program!

- Professionals, schools, and/or programs interested in an intentionally-designed short-term behavioral intervention to reinforce positive behavior and extinguish negative behavior.
- Professionals, schools, and/or professionals interested in a short-term placement with a transition back into their current setting.
