This morning the challenge course site was blanketed in cloud. The moisture hung thickly on the tree limbs. The new challenge course structures look eerie and enticing in the mist.

About the course

West Virginia University has contracted Alpine Towers International (www.alpinetowers.com) to construct a multi-element high and low challenge course facility to be used for student education and development. Once completed, the challenge course facility will be one of the largest educational facilities of its kind in the state.

Follow along this summer as we work to prepare the site, construct the facilities, ready the grounds, and watch the challenge course come together!
