The evenings are filled with night hikes, stargazing, special guests, and songfests. Ornithology workshops, birding expeditions, kayaking excursions, natural history classes, and nature drawing and photography are offered. In the heart of northwestern Wisconsin, nestled between rolling hills, wildflower prairies, and glacial lakes, this 500-acre Audubon sanctuary provides endless possibilities for a learning adventure. A second weeklong session, Teen River Ecology, is for campers aged 13 to 15. The Wade Into Ecology camp session focuses on wetlands and wildlife.
Participants learn about plants and animals unique to the cold, acidic environment.
Spectacular mountain landscapes, evening campfires, and views of bighorn sheep, moose, and eagles are the highlights of this camp, the most remote of the Audubon workshops. The Rocky Mountain Adventures Workshop leads you on field studies on subjects ranging from animal behavior to glacial geology. Included in the weeklong workshop is a day spent exploring Grand Teton National Park, a visit that's topped off by an evening raft trip complete with raptors down the Snake River. The center, located on 535 acres on the shores of Grindstone Lake, is the perfect place to explore Minnesota's wildlands. Campers learn to navigate by compass and to canoe the rapids.
