The Heroes Projects – (Based on California and operating in multiple states) Offers training and expeditions for wounded and severely injured veterans. These expeditions challenge the severely wounded to redefine their personal limits post injury. Daily training, weekend trips at altitude, healthy living, and a really good taste of the great outdoors are all part of the transformative experience they provide. All men and women who have incurred a traumatic physical or mental injury after 09/11/2001 are eligible for THP expeditions. Although beneficial, they do not require any prior climbing or outdoor experience and all gear is provided.
Plan on your training and expedition to take 3-6 months depending on your mountain and your journey to get there. Commitment to weekly training, plan on 4 days a week at a location close to you with an approved trainer and program and one full weekend day with planned overnights as training ramps up.
The Heroes Project holds an annual event, Climb for Heroes, at their local training ground in Mt. Baldy, California.
