An Unusual Perch

Walking Mountains™ is a 501(3c) nonprofit that provides place-based education in natural and environmental science through science programs for Eagle County schools, summer science day camps and overnight camps, adult and family excursions that take place across Vail, Colorado and Eagle County, Colorado. Graduate fellows can apply to be environmental educators and intern naturalists. Formerly named Gore Range Natural Science School, our educational programs enhance scientific literacy, build environmental awareness, and inspire stewardship in children, adults, residents and visitors to the Vail area and Rocky Mountains. The science school is currently raising funds to build the Buck Creek Campus, an exciting project that is striving for LEED Platinum Certification through an extensive green build plan.
