A brief description of the program:
The Aztec Adventures program has provided outdoor adventure education and recreation opportunities for students at San Diego State University for more than three decades. Activities include organized hiking, backpacking, kayaking and water sports trips and events. All programs follow the Leave No Trace wilderness ethic and seek to minimize the environmental impact of adventures. The program goal is to advance environmental preservation by providing small group experiences where participants are educated in both Leave No Trace Principles and introductory level skills in outdoor activities.
Aztec Adventure's mission is to "EAT GOOD FOOD (all successful expeditions throughout history depended on this) BE KIND (to the natural environment and to each other) TELL THE TRUTH (be honest about our abilities and limitations) and MAKE A DIFFERENCE (we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of our participants and staff through rewarding outdoor travel)."
