Our Expedition Camps stand apart from our Resident Camps on three main factors – size, location, and responsibility. At Resident Camp we enjoy beautiful locations in the Front Range where campers enjoy the comforts of well-maintained facilities, professionally-prepared meals, and a wide range of experiences and traditions with dozens of different activity groups. Our Expeditions move away from these regular comforts to provide campers with an opportunity to dig deeper into their respective activity in a small close-knit group where focused skill and community development thrive. We keep group sizes to 13 campers or less with 2 staff members. These authentic backcountry experiences are set in some of the most beautiful locations in California, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming. Campers sleep in tents, cook their own food in small groups, and have limited access to modern facilities/amenities. Expeditions offer more independence, responsibility, and a close-knit experience where campers form close bonds with each other and their instructors that are priceless.
Beginners and kids that love varied activities would thrive in our Multi-Sport Expeditions; while those that have a passion in a single sport like biking, climbing, paddling or backpacking- would progress their skills and have an incredible time in our Single-Sport Expeditions.
Expeditions are built on a one to two-week schedule so campers can enjoy multiple expeditions, a Resident Camp session, or simply to fit into the busy summer schedules of every family.
