Specialized Program Track – Outdoor Living Skills (Backpacking) – Session 2D

July 30, 2017 @ 12:00 am - August 12, 2017 @ 12:00 am EST

Would your child like to go backpacking in the scenic Tahoe National Forest? The Outdoor Living Skills Program Track is available to campers enrolling in sessions of two weeks or longer and is two weeks in length. In our Outdoor Living Skills Program Track, your child will not only go on one or more backpacking trips, but he or she will learn what and how to pack, plan meals, select a camp site, build a fire, cook, clean, and sanitation. And while on the trip, he or she will also learn the fundamentals of “Leave No Trace” (i.e., minimal impact) camping, and about the plants, animals, and geology of the area.
