Compare 2024 Trek 12-25 to 2023 Trek 12--1


2024 description: 'This itinerary is packed with great program, great vistas, and what is bound to be a great adventure of a lifetime! Start your journey with a bus from the Welcome Center to the Ute Park Trailhead and then a hike to New Dean Camp. Pay close attention to the training provided by your Ranger who will teach you everything you need to know for a successful trek. Your destination the next day is Pueblano where you'll get the opportunity to climb a spar pole and make a railroad tie. Be sure to attend the Continental Tie and Lumber Company meeting that night. Hike up and over Wilson Mesa the following morning to Rich Cabins and spend a day as a homesteader. Now you're heading into the Valle Vidal tract of the Carson National Forest to Middle Ponil Camp to some of the most beautiful country you'll ever see. If you are there in June (the elk will be calving until July 1st), you'll camp at Middle Ponil for one night and then head over to Ring Place the next day to get in an extra day of Mountain Biking. In July and August you will make camp at Middle Ponil Camp for two nights with a summit of Little Costilla peak on your layover day. Either way, enjoy the Mountain Biking and Astronomy programs at Ring Place. Before leaving for the Leave No Trace camp at Beatty Lakes the next morning, you'll do your conservation project. From there it's on to Rabbit Ear with Challenge Course Events at Dan Beard. Get a good night's sleep as you'll be working on the railroad and at the forge at Metcalf Station 'all the live long' next day. The evening company meeting there is rumored to be quite entertaining. Hike through Indian Writings and take the Petroglyph Tour before heading over to Chase Cow Camp for Climbing, Rappelling, and Bouldering. Your last hike is to the Chase Ranch Trailhead for a triumphant bus ride back to Base Camp! WELL DONE'
