Carefully moderated discussions at a hut, in a deep forest glade, in a wildflower meadow, or on a mountaintop, open minds to history, philosophy, nature, health, and much more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 16px;\">This unique blend of body and mind provides peace, tranquility and deep insights into the psychology of the warrior \u2013 and it all happens in just four days over a long weekend in the beautiful mountains of Colorado.<\/p>\n<p><em>Hiking is a major part of our program, so at this time, we are unable to serve the seriously disabled. However, we do our best to accommodate veterans with special needs.
