Sept. 10 - 21, 2008
Autumn Canyonlands Vision Quest with Animas Valley Inst.
A vision quest guided by Jade Sherer and Jim Marsden

Vision quests are potent, beautiful, life-changing experiences. They have their roots in many many cultures all over the world, and have been enacted for centuries.

The Animas quest facilitates life passages and self-discovery by temporarily displacing every day consciousness through five primary means: (1) solitude for three days and nights while (2) fasting (i.e. drinking water only), (3) being fully exposed to and enfolded by the forms and forces of nature, (4) enacting a series of ceremonial processes, and (5) employing a set of skills that support you in uncovering previously unknown realms.

Eight of these 11 days are spent in the wilderness of a mysterious and dynamic canyon in SE Utah, with three days at a retreat center in the ancient canyons of SW Colorado.
