Mission
Our mission is to change lives by challenging and expanding one’s notion of ability through meaningful outdoor adventure. In order to get the most out of life, one must have the confidence to try new things, and have a sense of the possibilities life holds for them. We do this by empowering and instilling greater confidence in our participants through canoeing, rock climbing, skiing, snowshoeing, and rafting adventures. Splore trips leave participants with an expanded sense of what they can accomplish both individually and as a family.
Experience
Since the first river trip in 1977, Splore has been one of the pioneers in inclusive outdoor adventure. Many of our participants and groups have been rafting with us since the 1980s and 1990s. Our Program Managers have over 25 years of combined experience managing adventure programs for people of all ability levels. Furthermore, in 2014, Splore gained accreditation as an Adventure Program through the Association of Experiential Education. This accreditation recognizes the best practices that Splore follows in regards to guide training, risk management, and program development.
Locations
Splore trips take place in the greater Salt Lake City area as well as in the Moab and Canyonlands area. We are fortunate to have permits in the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forests as well as on BLM-managed waterways in southern Utah. We also offer rock climbing trips at the City of Rocks National Reserve in southern Idaho. While most of our trips are in the great outdoors, our indoor climbing programs take place at Momentum Climbing Gyms’ Sandy and Millcreek locations.
Group Sizes
Splore groups range from 1 to 30 participants. While we will consider groups larger than 30, we prefer smaller group sizes in order to preserve the wilderness experience of our trips.

Paddling
Our Utah paddling trips are one of our most popular and accessible activities. Join Splore for a fun canoeing or stand up paddle board adventure on one of Utah’s beautiful waterways.
Cross Country Skiing
When it comes to what Utah is known for, the Greatest Snow on Earth comes to mind. Join Splore and spend your day exploring Utah’s beautiful snowy landscapes. There’s no better way to traverse the winter wonderland than with friends or family as you glide through the open frozen air.
Outdoor Rock Climbing
Utah’s Wasatch Front is home to some of the most sought after rock climbing routes in the world, and at Splore, we’re opening it up to everyone! Rock climbing is one of the fastest growing outdoor recreational activities in the country because it’s adaptable to all skill and comfort levels.
Indoor Rock Climbing
In recent years, rock climbing has transformed from a small community of climbers into one of the most popular activities in the country. There are many reasons for this, but the most important factor is that rock climbing is fun and easy for people of any skill or comfort level!
Snowshoeing
Feel weightless as you traverse Utah’s frozen wilderness on one of Splore’s exciting snowshoe adventures. Snowshoeing is a great way to see everything Utah has to offer in the winter. Explore the trails of Utah’s widespread canyon system and see the forests and mountains from a different perspective.
