History
Originally Sharpen The Edge was designed to reward exemplary high school students with outbound trips. After over 100 trips the adults chimed in and wanted their fair share of the fun. We have been exploring some of the more unknown regions of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the Gold Country, and of course Death Valley. If you don't know where it is...you can't get there. Bob Britz has been leading groups on outbound trips since the 1980's. Over his life he has mentored almost 700 young men and women through both his faith and sharing the great outdoors. Bob's passions include: coaching, mentoring, cooking, and the outdoors; Sharpen The Edge allows Bob to live out all his passions. Craig Buchholz was one of those 700 who took a special interest in these trips and has since then been on 30 trips and lead 7 of them. As an active member of the Army National Guard Craig brings special skills useful to the great outdoors. Craig's passions are golf, adventure, games, and great company.
