Backpacking - Deer
Description
Join us for an exciting week-long introductory adventure of wilderness living! As we travel down the beautiful trails of Wilson Creek Wilderness Area, near Marion, NC, we will explore the rock outcroppings and trout-filled mountain streams, experience the clear mountain air and dappled sunshine, increase our backpacking and wilderness knowledge, and develop confidence and new friendships.

This backpacking trip is designed for teens 14 to 17 years of age that have attended our Otter backpacking trip or with mid-level experience. Deer trips bridge the gap between our introductory and advanced trips. Teens have the opportunity to hone backpacking abilities as they learn from intructors and share their skills with peers, all while deepening personal connection with nature.
