Wilderness Ranch Backpacking and Adventure Trips
What to expect: Young Life and Wilderness Ranch maintain the highest level of safety and standards possible in operation of all of our activities at camp. But with all outdoor adventure activities, there are inherent and unavoidable risks involved that must be understood.
For Our Backpacking Trip: Here in the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado, we provide kids with an opportunity to get away from the distractions of the city and encounter God in new ways they can’t back home by backpacking through some of the most beautiful country in the United States. At basecamp, trips will be greeted by summer staff, pack everything necessary for the week on trail at a packing station, enjoy club and an outdoor lunch and then hit the trailhead. After the week of backpacking, trips will return to basecamp on the last day, unpack, get clean, enjoy camp before having dinner in the dining hall, followed by club, before heading home that evening. Every trip is led by 2-3 of our experienced guides. Our guides are professionally trained and equipped to provide the most enjoyable week possible for your group, while doing our best to mitigate risk as much as we can. Every trip is different, and our guides are prepared to adjust the logistics of the week to meet the individual needs of each group.
For Our Adventure Camp: Adventure camping trips base out of Wilderness Ranch and experience different day adventures around the area. These trips, which can be outreach or discipleship, will be the same length as the backpacking trips, making the logistics of doing both adventure camp and backpacking trips in the same week much more feasible! This new experience provides a unique opportunity for your group to stay in basecamp but enjoy different activities which may include day hikes, river floats, other adventures, quiet times, life stories, Bible studies, group discussions, and of course a few surprises along the way! Trips will be greeted at basecamp by a team of our experienced staff, shown to their home for the week, and will enjoy different adventures each day. The trip is accompanied by all of the food and gear necessary for the week of adventures! Our guides are professionally trained and equipped to provide the most enjoyable week possible for your group, while doing our best to mitigate risk as much as we can. Every trip is different, and our guides are prepared to adjust the logistics of the week to meet the individual needs of each group.
