Teen Backpacking Trips & Summer Camps
Teen Backpacking Trips to Lassen Volcanic Park
June 15 - 19, 2009 and June 22 - 26, 2009
This is the chance of a lifetime for teens between the ages of 14 & 18. Students will explore the backcountry of Lassen, hike between 2-8 miles daily, set up camp in a new & beautiful place every night, and rest alongside lakes & streams & wildflowers. With the help of Sports LTD, we have acquired donations of backpacking gear which may be available for participants who do not have their own equipment.
Scholarships of $50 & $100 are available
