Teens (ages 13 to 18) spend five days immersed in learning outdoor survival skills! Wilderness skills not only provide valuable tools that can be life-saving, but also teach concepts needed in the event of a natural disaster. Survival skills enhance our relationship with the natural world and connect us with our ancestral roots.

This camp includes expert instruction and hands-on experience with:

  • Survival shelters for all seasons
  • Primitive fire starting skills
  • Identifying and harvesting wild edible plants
  • Locating and purifying water
  • Primitive fishing and trapping
  • Identifying animal tracks and sign
  • Stone survival tools
  • Nature observation and awareness
  • And much more...

    • The days are full of fun activities and instruction, augmented with skill-based games and explorations of the surrounding forest lands. Campers construct a variety of survival tools to take home and gain a deeper appreciation for nature while honing teamwork and naturalist skills.

    Testimonial:

    "Alderleaf's instructors are wonderful. I was able to create the tools for making fire, purifying water, even making a survival shelter. I never thought I personally would experience the kind of success I did; making fire for the first time is awe inspiring. Thank you!"
