The 7-day trip is for participants who are going into or finishing their first year of high school. Designed specifically to support participants in that pivotal life moment, this trip builds on the skills and practices from the 5-day trip, while turning the volume up on the physical adventure.
As with every WILD trip, we'll hike, play games, swim in beautiful water, get real around the fire, and have plenty of free time to enjoy the beauty of the Sierras.
In addition to the core elements of Back to Earth's training - gratitude and mindfulness practices, nature observation, and wilderness skills - participants on a 7-day trip will become proficient in the use of their backpacking gear.
LOCATION (Horse Ridge): This trip will take the boys into the southern wilderness of Yosemite National Park. The group will traverse ridges and gain sweeping views of one the the most iconic regions in the world.
