Overview 

The Spring Expedition is a culmination of everything the students have learned during the spring term. We have been following the Deschutes Basin from the source of Whychus Creek. During this trip we are observing and learning many skills on our rafting trip. The students are involved in planning/preparation for this expedition. The studies are focused on the Lower Deschutes area.
