Girls on Ice is a unique, free, wilderness science education program for

glaciologists and mountaineers.

Applicants must be at least fifteen years old by the start date of the
program, and no older than eighteen by the end date. The application
process requires a series of short essay questions and two teacher
recommendations. For further information, or to download the application
