A mountaineering adventure and learning experience for young women!
Girls on Ice is a unique, FREE, wilderness science education program for high school girls. Each year two teams of 9 teenage girls and 3 instructors spend 12 days exploring and learning about mountain glaciers and the alpine landscape through scientific field studies with professional glaciologists, ecologists, artists, and mountaineers.
One team explores Mount Baker, an site ice-covered volcano in the North Cascades of Washington State. The other team sleeps under the midnight sun exploring an Alaskan glacier.
“Girls on Ice is not a reward for past good grades or academic achievement, it is an inspiration for future success.”
Applications for the 2017 Girls on Ice Teams will start in December! Please check back!
To be eligible, girls must be at least 16 years old by the Alaska program start date, and no older than 18 on the North Cascades program end date.
