Make summer 2024 stand out.
We offer small-batch, Alaskan-adventure inspired summer camps designed with three things in mind: friendship, outdoor safety concepts and skills, and sustainable use of the wild spaces we love!
Our summer camps are bookable as weekly sessions (Monday-Friday) from June 3 to August 14, with the week of July 4th closed.
Age Groups: Our summer camps are offered in three age cohorts:
ages 5-6 (“Little Wolf Pups”)
ages 7-9: (“Young Outdoor Explorers”)
ages 10-13: (“Jr. Alaskan Explorers”)
age groups for overnight trips and expeditions:
10-13
14-17
To book a summer day camp, this is the page for you! If you are interested in booking a multi-day, overnight trip, click here or check out the menu for the youth trips page!

Day Camp Themes for the 10-13 year old cohort:
This age group is more focused on spending the day learning specific, hands-on skills. Of course with plenty of time to relax, develop friendships, and play! Instructors will include the science that goes along with the outdoor skill, but our focus is on understanding “the why” of the skill, how it works, and practice!
For multi-day trips, see the page “Youth Multi-Day Trips”.
