2013 description: 'If your crew is up for the challenge… they will enjoy every second of a new “Challenge Course” trek! This trek will climb over Baldy
Mt, participate at challenge course camps, be given an envelope of initiative games (and Leave No Trace games) to open at two
trail camps, and daringly master our high ropes COPE Course to top off the experience! The trek will begin by visiting the
Continental Tie and Lumber Company, where your crew will climb spar poles, cut railroad ties, and be entertained by the loggers at
their “Company Meeting” campfire. Be amazed at your proximity to Baldy Mountain when you enter the wildflower filled meadow
at Ewells Park (en route Baldy Town and Ute Meadows). Your two day stay at Ute Meadows will enable you to climb Baldy, shoot
black powder rifles at Miranda, explore the Aztec Mine at French Henry, and tour historic Baldy Town. When all that is complete,
you will hike to Head of Dean to complete the first part of your challenge course experience. Upon completion of the course, your
Crew Leader and Wilderness Pledge Guia will each be given an envelope of initiative games to complete while you are en route to
Miners Park. There you will overcome another challenge when you test your rock climbing skills. The next day you will hike to
Urraca Mesa to participate in some advanced challenge course events and where you will guide the staff through an initiative
game or two of your own. The staff there will prep you on high ropes hard skills, communication, and safety. Next you will hike
over Lovers Leap to the Stockade. On the last morning, your final test will be to conquer the high ropes at our Cope Course before
returning to Base Camp.' |
