group. Because trips share only actual expenses, trips can be incredibly
inexpensive.
• Decision sharing. Everyone is encouraged to give input in a consensus
decision. Everyone participates in shaping and owning decisions. Deci
sions are often better and more creative with everyone brainstorming rather
than a single “leader.”

OP Resource Center
Whether initiating an OP trip or planning one on your own, the Outdoor
Program serves as Eugene's backcountry information center with libraries,
boards, maps, videos, equipment rental information and lots more to assist
with trip planning and preparation. Our office houses the trip board where
adventures are posted, groups are formed, and dreams come true! We also host
clinics, workshops, and slideshows on everything from Sea Kayaking in Baja
to Environmental Action Projects, to Avalanche Safety Clinics. If we don't
have the answer to your outdoor question, we know how to find it. Come by
and visit our EMU office; you'll be amazed at the array of cool outdoor
information we have on hand!
On November 5, 1995, two UO students,
Frank Allard and Michael Casey, failed to
return to camp after a summit attempt on
the North Sister on a private outing. The
Allard and Casey Memorial Safety Li
brary was created by the UO Outdoor
Program and the ASUO in response to this
tragic accident. This Library makes a va
riety of wilderness safety gear and
resources available for any UO student or
Outdoor Program co-op member for wil
derness outings. There is no charge for
any of the gear, although any cell phone
use must be reimbursed. Users are also
responsible for any loss or damage. Cell
phones, VHF radios, GPS units, Ava
lanche transceivers, snow shovels, and
more are available for use; call or drop by
the office to reserve equipment.
OP Co-op Trip Facility (Barn)
In order to facilitate cooperative trips, the Outdoor Program purchases and
maintains a variety of recreation equipment which is available only for
Outdoor Program trips. For details on this equipment call (346-4371) our
trip facility, The Barn, located at the 18th & University.
