Testimonials from Student Pastors
Life-Altering Change
It is a wonderful, amazing,… spirit-filled, mind-changing, life-altering week of camp that continues to change my students’ lives.

Committed to Student Pastors
Not only do they invest in my students, but there is a great concern and care devoted to me as a pastor. I am so grateful for you guys.
Lee Wilder, South Fork Baptist
Gospel-Centered Conversations
The staff working with us adapted to my students really well, changing how they ran share groups throughout the week to be able to make their interactions with my students more engaging.

Snowbird Wilderness Outfitters exists to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ through the exposition of Scripture and personal relationships in order to equip the Church to impact this generation. This Gospel-driven mission is what every one of our retreats is focused on.

What do Snowbird Fall Youth Retreats look like?
These fall youth retreats include solid biblical teaching, Gospel-focused worship, high-adventure recreation, and small groups with your best friends.
What types of housing do you provide?
We have over 14 cabins on our campus, divided by bedrooms for each group. They each provide twin-sized bunk beds, air conditioning, and heat. Our cleaning team takes great pride in keeping things clean but the buildings are primarily functional.
You’ll need to provide your own bedding, pillow and towels. One of our 4 bathhouses is always a short walk from each cabin.
How do I add or drop additional spots to my group?
You can add additional spots to your group as long as the retreat is not full. The best way to find out is to open your Snowbird Account and see if any remaining spots are open for the retreat. However, you only want to register spots that you’re sure you’ll need. The deposit is non-refundable.
Check our Registration Guide for details on how to invite specific students to your group via email.
Can I bring my dog to Snowbird?
Due to the complexity of events at SWO, our campuses operate under a “no animals” policy. As a religious organization, SWO is not bound by public accommodation rules. If you have questions about this policy, please call us for clarification.
