Bo Welden

Bo was born and raised in the Elk Mountains of Colorado and attended Colorado State University for both his undergraduate degree and Master’s degree. There he studied Human Dimensions of Natural Resources, researching international conservation issues in Rwanda and domestic issues with Subaru and Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics. Intertwined with these field research experiences, Bo continually taught environmental education throughout the west, which eventually brought him to Jackson and the Teton Science School.

Landing in Jackson in the depths of the 2017 winter, Bo knew that he was home. He has always felt connected to wild places and feels honored to be able to call the largest area of “wild” country in the Lower 48 his home. During years of teaching with Teton Science Schools, Bo led thousands of students from ages 5 to 96 into the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. From hour-long programs with First Graders discovering the worlds of stream ecology, to multi-day wildlife safaris across Wyoming with retirees, Bo loves learning from others’ perspectives and experiences. He hopes to never be considered an expert in any topic because that means he has nothing new to learn, and years teaching others about the natural world has demonstrated to him that someone else always has something to teach you.

Bo is a certified Wilderness First Responder and a certified University of Wyoming Outdoor Guide.
