Some camping is at primitive or semi-primitive sites with no facilities. Indoor accommodations range from hostels to dorms and lodges. For each trip, lodging type is listed on the description page. Care is taken with all trips to choose facilities that will ensure the health and safety of our participants and staff. We try to make meals fun, tasty and nutritious enough to keep you going even on long days.
Groups typically eat out at a restaurant once a week.
All food, except candy and soda, is included in your tuition. Leaders are required to call our office immediately if unexpected circumstances arise, such as a change of route. You will receive a list of mail drops where your family and friends can write to you during your trip. We discourage frequent phone calls home since this often disrupts the flow of group life and travel. Leaders will accompany students to the phones once a week so they can call home and will stay close by in order to address any questions or concerns.
