This 5-day Summer Adventure Camp for middle and high school students will include 4 days exploring different trails and one day paddling on flatwater. Students will have the opportunity to connect with like-minded friends, explore the rugged terrain of the San Juan Mountains, and define themselves before heading back to school. In addition to learning about about plants, flowers and local forests, camping basics and Leave No Trace ethics, kids will gain leadership and communication skills while hiking among peers and SJMA Naturalists.
