Course Description:
'' This course is designed for 14- and 15-year-olds who want to climb a peak and guide a paddle raft all in one action-packed month.
You’ll see two very different environments on this course—high alpine vistas in the craggy Lemhis or Beaverheads and deep canyons along the famous Salmon River in Idaho—while learning two very different skills.
For the backpacking section, you’ll learn map and compass skills, backcountry cooking, and Leave No Trace skills. You’ll also learn how to make decisions, develop confidence, and get along with your peers after a long day on the trail (we call this “expedition behavior�.
The Salmon River bisects the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. Here you’ll travel on rafts and oar rigs learning basic river skills like scouting, paddle strokes, hazard evaluation, and rigging boats.
