Evaluating Tremont's Impact
Learn why your school's visit to Tremont will be "more than just a field trip."
Head to the top of the Smokies and spend the night at LeConte Lodge, the highest elevation lodge in the eastern United States. Saturday evening will be spent at Tremont, and we’ll head up the mountain the following morning. Along the way, our education staff will share their knowledge of natural history, high elevation ecology, and science. While at the top, you will enjoy spectacular views, hearty meals, and a cozy bed. We’ll return to civilization on Monday. We suggest you sign-up with a friend, or be prepared to bunk with a new one. Program lasts from Saturday supper to Monday late lunch.
The spring (April 19-21, 2008) Le Conte trip will take the Boulevard trail up and tour by Rainbow Falls coming down.
Cost: $365 (includes all meals, lodging, transportation, and instruction). Full amount is required for registration.
