A promise for Idaho education
In 1998, twenty-five years ago, Mathew Gershater launched Mountain Adventure Tours (MAT) to provide Wood River Valley youth with the opportunity to dive into nature and enjoy the outdoors while learning about their connection to the natural world and themselves. Today, the organization is known as Idaho BaseCamp (IBC), and Gershater’s vision for youth to have a stronger connection to the natural world and community has been more than realized.
