Outdoor Trip Scholarships!
Who we are WE ARE PEAK ADVENTURES Peak Adventures is an outdoor adventure program funded by Associated Students, Inc. at Sacramento State. We are dedicated to providing adventure education and leadership development opportunities for all ages. We have been guiding people on outdoor adventures since 1989 and have become the most unique, diverse, and affordable outdoor recreation provider within Northern California.
Mission Our mission is to o enrich the Sacramento State learning experience through adventure education and leadership development.
HISTORY In the early 1970’s, two Sacramento State students felt that the campus needed a tool co-op: a place for students to share tools in order fix their bikes conveniently and affordably. This tool co-op eventually began renting other outdoor equipment and became known as Mountain Wolf Sports. In 1989, the program was picked up and designated a program of Associated Students Incorporated (ASI) and the program became known as Peak Adventures. Today, Peak Adventures employs eight professional staff plus over fifty student and non-student staff members as outdoor trip leaders, ropes course facilitators, bike shop mechanics, and office staff who serve thousands of customers each year.
