These off-site expeditions for high school-aged campers offer a much broader scope than our Junior Expeditions.  Each senior trip is coed and led by a male and female guide with leadership and outdoor experience.  Guided discussions, physical challenges, personal quiet times, spectacular views, and group sharing give opportunities to strengthen faith, deepen appreciation for God’s creativity, and stimulate relevant discussions.
