Fulfill your sense for adventure on this flexible, family oriented trip. With activities for students and families alike throughout the week, you can do it all or pick and chose activities as you like. Expect to spend your days hiking, paddling, swimming, pedaling, around the Wallow Mountains and Joseph,Oregon. With a jet boat ride in Hells Canyon, the striking scenery of eastern Oregon won't be the only thrill on this trip to remember.

 

An academic component will ensure your student learns about the science, history, and topography of the region as well as utilizing the many wilderness first aid and survival skills they've learned at Wildwood. There will also be a very artistic component to this trip that will allow kids to explore their creative side by painting, journal writing, writing, and sketching in workshops.

 

Options to send your student with Wildwood or come on the trip as a whole family, mean you can chose what works best in the context of your summer.
