How can I rent WSU’s outdoor gear?

To get equipped for your next adventure, visit the Outdoor Program’s Rental Center and check out all the rentals WSU has to offer. After you have decided on what to rent, stop by the Outdoor Program anytime Monday –Saturday, 8am to 6pm. They are located on 41st and Taylor, in Annex 9 on the WSU Campus (see map below). Or if you would like to reserve your equipment over the phone, call 801-626-6376. Community members are welcome to rent from the Outdoor Program but if you’re a wildcat you can rent at a discounted price with your Wildcard. When renting don’t forget to bring your drivers license, and a debit or credit card for the deposit.

 

If you're thinking that's a house. You're right! The Campus Rec Outdoor Program is in a house. And just in case you're wondering, even though it is a house the workers don't actually live there.

Just beyond that little grove of trees.

The parking lot is for Wilderness Rec Center customers. That's you. So enjoy it while it lasts cause everywhere else is permit only.

You don't need to knock because it's not a real house. ;) Just walk right in.


This guy knows everything about outdoor gear so don't be afraid to ask questions.

Wet suits over your clothes are not a great idea in the middle of the summer. FYI

"Just around the river bend, my river trip is just around the river bend!" Think I would make a good Pocahontas?

Rafting last Friday on the Snake River. Thanks to my wet suit from Wilderness Rec I didn't die of hypothermia with 47º water! (And yes I do wear purple on Weber Wear Fridays even when I'm not on campus.)
