First Name:

Age as of October 1, 2026:

City/State Currently Residing In:

Is the youth a biological male?
YesNo

Has the youth participated in a prior trip with Of Mountains & Men?
YesNo

If yes, which trip did he go on?:

Does the youth have any significant medical issues? This includes prescription medications (including antidepressants), heart/breathing issues, mobility issues, or any other factors that may impact them while on our wilderness adventures. While your answers may not necessarily disqualify the youth from participating, they’re essential in that we may not have close access to an emergency room. Please answer yes or no. If yes, please provide details.

MENTOR:

The mentor must be an adult male. Their role is to be a companion to the youth with whom the boy feels comfortable discussing Christian Manhood. Youth may either bring a mentor with them (i.e., father, relative, family friend) or a background-checked OMM mentor will be provided (these are men of strong Christian faith experienced in working with youth). If your youth needs a mentor, please enter “needs mentor” for the Last Name entry. Youth participating in our Big Game and Gator Hunts will have their own mentor on the trip. Due to group size restrictions for the Wilderness Canoeing trips, however, not every youth will be able to bring their own mentor. If your youth is selected for the canoe trip, you will be contacted to confirm whether the mentor listed on this application can participate. We do our absolute best to have mentors listed on the application be able to join their young man on the trip.
