Maine Appalachian Trail Backpack (ages 14-17, Three-Week)
The Appalachian Trail through Maine is considered by many to be the most remote section of the footpath that begins in Georgia. Eight participants and two leaders will spend three weeks traveling through this magnificent area, spending between four and six days above treeline. Participants will learn low-impact camping techniques and will experience the wild beauty of this delicate subalpine area. Each three-week trip will cover a different section of the trail in Maine.

Ultra-Light Hike (ages 15-18, Five Week)
Backpacking is a weight sensitive mode of travel. Participants of this experience will carry ultra-light packs, stoves, and cook sets, which will be used while the group traverses the magnificent Long Trail, one of the oldest continuous hiking trails in the United States. Spanning the length of Vermont the Long Trail winds 270 miles among picturesque lowlands and breathtaking ridges. This 5-week trip is a unique opportunity for experienced hikers to learn what it takes to plan and complete a successful and rewarding thru-hike. Interested participants must have previous backpacking experience.
