<aside> 💡 Our weeklong Expedition Camps transport 5th – 12th graders to some of the most stunning, secluded natural spaces in California, including Yosemite National Park, for an authentic—and transformative—experience. Expedition campers sleep in tents every night and adventure every day, choosing to focus on backpacking, paddling or multi-sport experience. In addition to exploring their spectacular surroundings and logging lots of practice in their sport of choice, they learn lasting skills in everything from gear management and cooking outdoors to problem solving and teamwork.
