Campers will learn outdoor living skills, gain an appreciation for the natural environment around them, and challenge themselves during this week-long backcountry experience. Under careful supervision, your camper will gain valuable outdoor survival skills, as they’re encouraged to grow in scenarios such as:
Creating shelters from resources found in nature


Foraging for food and learning to set traps


Building fire to cook over and stay warm


Navigating waterways and rough terrain


Employing various methods of self-rescue and rope techniques


Campers are outfitted with essential outdoor gear, so they can experience simulated, yet very real, survival scenarios in the wilderness. Campers develop grit and resilience as they test the boundaries of their physical and mental toughness. This is the only Frost Valley program where campers rappel down a 50-foot waterfall!
