Overnight out-trips, leadership challenges, and cultural immersion ensure that participants will always be engaged and active!

Eagle Camp

* Camp is FULL

This exciting camp is for all youth aged 12 to 15 yrs old and acquaints them with Ghost River activities in a fun and educational way. As with all our youth camps, everyone sleeps in tipis that are nestled deep in mountains and lit up only by the night stars. We carefully guide the youth on exciting hikes through the spectacular mountains and forests surrounding our base camp. Weather permitting we plan for an overnight adventure away from base camp.

Trek into wondrous valleys, set-up camp in the forest, explore where few have been before, build new and lasting friendships!

This all-male experience is a chance for young men to further develop their personal skills and leadership qualities. Participants will journey through the landscape of the Ghost River Wilderness with backpacks, outdoor skills and the teachings of Aboriginal culture. The journey is also within them as they carve a new path for themselves that will forever impact their lives. The passage from boyhood to manhood is honored as participants explore what it means to be a man and gain useful live lessons for this passage.
