SUMMARY:Wilderness Adventure Trek II - FULL
DESCRIPTION:Sorry\, this program is FULL. Please email mail@gsmit.org to be added to the waitlist.\n\nJune 23-28 | $945 | Register Now\n\nMake this summer an adventure they’ll never forget. \nGreat Smoky Mountains National Park offers tremendous opportunities to learn about a diverse and beautiful part of the planet. Known for breathtaking views\, clear mountain streams\, abundant wildlife\, and a variety of plants\, this is the perfect setting for an introductory backpacking course. During this true backcountry wilderness experience\, campers will sleep in the woods\, swim in a mountain stream\, kick back around the campfire\, and make new friends to last a lifetime. \nWilderness Adventure Trek provides a unique opportunity for teens to become fully immersed in the wilderness for longer than a weekend camping trip\, all with the guidance of Tremont’s experienced professional naturalists. Over the course of the week\, your teen will learn about the wildlife\, natural ecosystems\, and biodiversity of the Smokies – and themselves! Campers should expect to be challenged physically and mentally as they hike\, prepare meals\, set up camp\, and other tasks essential for living in the wilderness. But trust us\, it’s going to be a blast. \nAs campers climb a mountain carrying everything needed to survive for 4 days and 3 nights\, they will understand what backpacking is all about. This empowering experience will not only give your teen the skills they need for planning and enjoying a safe\, successful backpacking trip\, but will also provide the confidence needed for tackling big challenges and adventures in the future. \nBefore you register\, we suggest checking out this background information so you know what to expect from the experience. \nAges: 13-17\nPrice: $945 \n  \n  \nRegistration includes food and lodging inside Great Smoky Mountains National Park.  \nNeed financial assistance? Money\, or lack of it\, should never stand in the way of a life-changing summer experience. Learn more about financial aid. \nAlready registered? Check out the welcome document for a packing list and other essential details for this experience. \nPlease note: While we strongly believe that wilderness experiences lead to personal growth\, Tremont is not structured to work with youth experiencing acute mental health crises and our programs should not be considered a substitute for wilderness therapy. \n\nCover photo by Casey Zazzaro.
