2023 description: 'Begin your journey at Lovers Leap Trailhead and make your way to Lovers Leap camp for Ranger training. The next day is on to Urraca Mesa where your crew can put their skills to the test on the challenge course under the watchful guidance of trained facilitators at Urraca camp. The campfire at night is sure to both spook and entertain you! Get up early for the gorgeous sunrise from Inspiration Point as you hike to Abreu where you can enjoy cold root beer in the Cantina, learn about the early Mexican homesteaders, and have a great Mexican dinner that evening. After a night on the trail at Lower Bonito, hike to Beaubien to get your hats and belts branded then on to Phillips Junction where you will pick up food and then head to Bear Creek for the night. The next day you will head to Crooked Creek to visit the homesteaders that live there and help them with their daily tasks. On your way, swing by Apache Springs to learn about the Jicarilla Apache's. Hiking up the Rayado Creek trail will be a special day, as you make your way to the Rocky Mountain Fur Co. at Clear Creek. Here you will learn their trade, shoot muzzle loading rifles, and try your hands at tomahawks. The next day is a mountaintop experience as you climb Mt Phillips and Comanche Peak as you hike to Comanche Peak Camp for the night. Next, head downhill to try your hand at panning for gold and blacksmithing at Cyphers Mine before ending up at Hunting Lodge where you can take a tour of another of Mr. Phillips’ favorite cabins. Your last day on the trail will take you through the Demonstration Forest for some lessons with the forester and a quick stop at Clarks Fork as you make your way to the Webster Trailhead and then back to base.'
