| 2023 description: 'This great itinerary will provide your crew with many meaningful program opportunities and a chance to climb Trail Peak...if
you're up for the challenge! Begin your trek by hiking from the Zastrow Trailhead to Old Abreu Camp for the night. Enjoy the
rushing waters of the Rayado before stopping by Abreu for some root beer and a cabin tour. Hike on to Carson Meadows,
where the staff has a search and rescue mission for you. Hike the beautiful Rayado Canyon to Fish Camp for fly tying, fishing,
and a tour of Waite Phillips' Rayado Lodge. At Beaubien, your crew can try out their roping and branding skills and learn about
the life of a Cowboy on the cattle drive. You'll work up an appetite, so be ready for a hearty chuckwagon dinner and the
awesome cowboy campfire. Wake up early for your next adventure, which will take you up and over Trail Peak, where you can
pay your respects to the crew of the B24 Liberator that crashed there in 1942. On your way down to Bear Caves, you will stop
at Crater Lake to meet the loggers of the Continental Tie & Lumber Company. They will teach you how to use a variety of
woods tools, including crosscut saws and broad axes, and if you have time, Spar Pole Climbing! They will probably invite you
to their Company Meeting campfire that night, so feel free to make the short hike to come visit them again! Your final leg of
your journey will take you down to the Lovers Leap rock formation. Enjoy this unique spot before ultimately making it to the
trailhead for your bus trip back to base camp' |
