Men's Adult Challenge II

Voice of Wilderness is an unbelievable opportunity to challenge you physically and spiritually in God’s creation.  I have never benefitted more from a ministry that presented me with an opportunity to grow as an individual.”

Father Daughter Adventure

With my daughter's life getting busier than mine, it was a blessing to have the time in the San Juan mountains to reconnect as dad and daughter.

Father Daughter Adventure

It was so wonderful to have the quality one-on-one time with my dad and the perfect setting to help eliminate all the noise and distractions we are typically surrounded by

Men's Backpacking

Our men's trip into the San Juan Mountains was the perfect combination of physical challenge, spiritual renewal, and relationship building. The scenery and the wildlife were incredible! Going into the mountains, we were a group of men who sort of knew each other, but coming out of the mountains we were a band of brothers who could call each other true life-long friends.

Father Son

Voice of Wilderness provided an incredible life-changing experience for my two teenage sons and me as they guided us and a group of other fathers and sons on a backpacking trip into the beautiful San Juan Mountains. The devotionals and discussion times facilitated by the awesome staff helped change my relationship with my sons forever. It was an incredible experience, and I would recommend it for all dads and their sons.

Voice of Wilderness base camp is located north of Pagosa Springs, Colorado, high in the San Juan Mountains, totally surrounded by national forest. A rustic log lodge with a large open fireplace and cozy bedrooms will welcome each participant at the beginning and end of each trip. Panoramic views can be seen in all directions from these 35 beautiful acres, which are clothed partially by magnificent aspen, fir and spruce trees and partially by a meadow covered with tall grass and a wide variety of wild flowers.
