TRIPS

What defines an activity that is a trip?

  • A trip is an almost always a free activity where we explore Colorado by foot, snowshoe, rope, or ski.
  • Participants might learn something, but there is no direct educational component.
  • Registration and signed waiver are required.
  • Rosters must be updated and the activity closed when complete.
  • All trips are in the Find Trips search page.
  • Activities for which you are registered (participant or leader) are listed on your profile's My Activities page.

If you're a leader and you already know what to do... SCHEDULE AN ACTIVITY

If you are new to scheduling and managing activities, our video tutorials, frequently asked questions, and blog about activity listings may help. For more information, visit:

HOW TO SCHEDULE & MANAGE ACTIVITIES


ROUTES & PLACES

We use Routes & Places as the starting point for adding activities. This includes our trips, clinics, seminars, and course lectures & field trips.

Found a route/place that needs to be updated or could be improved? Have new images or resources to add to an existing route/place? Please complete the Route/Place Updates, Images & Resources Form.

Need a new one? Review How to Request New or Updated Routes & Places to learn all about Routes & Places and how to add one.


CLINICS & SEMINARS

What defines activities that are clinics and seminars?

  • A one-time skill-based activity, like learning how to roll aseminar_or_clinic_001.png kayak or refreshing steep snow-climbing skills. This differs from courses where you learn a variety of skills over a longer period of time. 
  • They are connected to a route/place to prevent conflicts at that location.
  • Registration and signed waiver are required.
  • Rosters must be updated and the activity closed when complete.
  • All clinics and seminars are in the Find Activities and Find Courses, Clinics & Seminars searches.
  • Clinics and seminars for which you are registered (as both a participant or leader) are listed on your profile's My Activities page.

COURSES WITH LECTURES & FIELD TRIPS

What defines a course?

  • Multi-day, multi-part, skill-based education.
  • Includes more than one course-related activity like lectures, workshops, field trips, and practice sessions. If your course is only one day, it should be listed as a clinic or seminar!
  • Registration and signed waiver are required.
  • Ability to manage students, graduates, equivalency candidates, and equivalents.
  • All courses are in the Find Course, Clinics & Seminars search.
  • Courses and their activities, clinics, and seminars for which you are registered (for all students, graduates, leaders, or instructors) are listed on your profile's My Courses page.

Because courses have multiple components, they are a bit more complicated to set up than any other types of programs we schedule. To learn about scheduling a course, visit:

EVENTS

What defines an event?

      • Generally in-town, inside, and sit-down, with a focus on meeting others, discussing topics, or watching programmed content.
      • Meetings, film festivals, and most seminars.
      • Events have RSVP capabilities and a roster you can download 
      • Find events on our Upcoming Events page.
      • Events for which you RSVP (as a participant or event contact) are listed on your profile's My Activities page.
