Teen Summer Wilderness Adventure CA - 16 to 17
Authentic outdoor adventure
Oregon's rugged mountain terrain provides authentic wilderness experience for your teenager.
Your teen(s) will receive one-on-one personalized attention from Mark and his dedicated staff of student volunteers.
There is something wonderful that happens for young people that spend time in the mountains. These young people grow into themselves right before our very eyes. With humor and grit teens step up and support each other and put their best foot forward.
A challenge
14- days outdoor adventure is a challenge no doubt about it. And though it is hard to get up in the morning and make your own breakfast, clean up, and pack up your camp up. There is great personal satisfaction in this simple accomplishment. Teens through this daily experience of self-reliance realize how little stuff they need to be happy and have a wonderful time.
Life in the woods
No cell phones here. Here we experience the wonder and of nature through our own senses instead of a screen. A challenge no doubt. But the fullness of nature must be experienced with eyes wide open with all the wonder and magic nature provides.

Testimonials
Our 16 years old son attended two weeks Lifesong Wilderness Adventures camp in July 2018. He had zero prior experience camping, which I take the blame for so I was hoping this would be a great start.
I'd like to point out that my son didn't ask for it and it came as a part of the 'deal' we made: if he goes to the camp, he would be allowed to manage his 'gaming time' for the rest of the summer. I must say it was the best decision we made as a family lately!
Our son came back very happy and 'mature', I could not believe how much good two weeks could do to a teenager! He made us all very proud and now his younger brother getting ready to become a 'mountaineer' for two weeks.
He would have to wait until next year though 🙂 Highly recommend. ~Anatoli Stukanov
