I would do Colorado state for the great outdoors and environmental science

I really wouldn’t encourage anyone to spend four years in grand forks, unless the alternative was a gulag or something.

UMontana or Montana State are great for outdoorsyness. Boise State is also a great school with access to outdoors. Utah as well. Second UNR for Tahoe access. Cal Poly is super bro now :/
Maybe also Oregon State

University of Oregon is another good option.

Was going to say the same. Oregon is outdoorsy but they’ll be surrounded by kids interested in all types of things. Good school, great town and not that hard to get to (Eugene Airport has nonstops as far east as Chicago, along with Denver, Salt Lake, Dallas, Seattle, Portland and California cities).

Schools in Oregon and Western Montana (UM and MSU) as a PP noted, would also be good choices.

Oregon likes to present itself as outdoorsy, but when I lived in Portland (for 10 years between2005-2015) all people seemed to do was drink beer and smoke cigarettes. West coast version of Wisconsin.

That’s right, I heard every student at UND freezes to death at some point. That’s why no one graduates.

People in the DMV can't get over the idea that winter exists.

Eugene is 90 minutes and a world away from Portland. Totally different vibe, environment and residents.

I know a young woman whose parents met as whitewater rafting guides. She grew up on a raft in the summer, on skis in winter. She’s at Colorado State and she loves it.

I'm fascinated by anyone thinking that ND is a place for an outdoorsy 18 year old.

I'm sure it has hunting. Cross country skiing?

What else? Other than a lack of urbanization.

I only know one person that went there. She is a pilot.

There has to be a reason that the OP has asked about this school. Not sure what it is. The kids that like the outdoors from our high school head to schools in Montana or Colorado.

Doesn't seem like you would like it there and that's cool but many actually do find Fargo to be a nice little city. Definitely not for everyone.
