Building on foundations of the "3 Rs" (positive risk-taking, respect and responsibility), students set goals, work on team projects, study ecology and leadership and master challenging backcountry adventures.Half of the staff are returning alumni, providing intensive small group support, and serving as powerful role models for success.MEC also hosts school groups for multi-day field trips during the fall and spring, often in connection with the in-classroom Winter Ecology Program (WEP).In 2024 the Organization provided scholarships to 154 attendees.Expenses $1,289,132 · grants $108,550 · revenue $41,849
