Inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards.
Integrating themes, labs, and curriculum into each outing, we believe better outcomes for stewardship and communication can be achieved through our experiential programs. Make a difference in your community by bringing a TSX Education experience to your High School, Club or Organization.
We have the only NPS approved Educational Trek that takes students to the top of Mt. Whitney.
Our founders have lead hundreds of students across the Sierra to Mt. Whitney. Discover our Environmental Science program in Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks, and how you can bring an week-long educational trek across the Sierra to Mt. Whitney to your club or organization.
