Leadership Camp


Based on popular demand, Leadership Camp was started in 2013. Open to campers ages 14-17, Leadership Camp is a more rigorous session than High Peaks Camp. Leadership Camp is an eleven day wilderness excursion designed to instill the skills needed to safely and independently lead backcountry trips.

While the exact itinerary has changed each year, the past two years (due to COVID) have been a continuous backpacking trip with one resupply part way through. Often the camp has finished at Panorama Camp to share in the final banquet with High Peaks Camp.

The annual deadline for applications is November 1, though the deadline for Leadership Camp 2023 has been extended to December 1, 2022. Applications can be submitted after the deadline; if Camp is full your child will be added to the waitlist.​
