Voice of Wilderness
Celebrating 50 Years
Voice of Wilderness is a Christian backpacking and retreat center specializing in spiritual refreshment, educational adventures, and physical challenges. Voice of Wilderness was founded by Chet & Bobbie Russell in 1973 and is currently based out of Mountain Light Lodge, located in the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado.
"For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse."
- Romans 1:20 NASB
Learn new skills.
Voice of Wilderness is committed to offering excellence and quality in a well-rounded wilderness experience. We seek to provide adventure and challenge with a spiritual and educational focus.
See God's creation.
Where life is basic, man is more likely to realize his need for dependence on his Creator. Here, an individual can see God's creation and understand more of His power.
Gain Knowledge.
In addition to our experience in wilderness skills and leadership, we offer a wealth of knowledge in life experiences that can relate to the roles of the business professional, parent, and student.
Since 1973.
Join us to grow through spiritual refreshment, educational adventures, and physical challenges of our wilderness programming.
