Join us for a week of fun filled outdoor adventures with a supportive group of LGBTQ+ youth! This program will develop your self-confidence through building meaningful relationships with people who have similar shared experiences and exploring the regenerative powerful wisdom of the forest. We will learn traditional ancestral skills including tracking, fire building, crafting, storytelling and sealthcraft to help ground our nervous systems in the present. You will leave this camp with a greater sense of self and connection with the forest and fellow queer youth.
Schedule for the week:Participants must be entering grades 9 to 12.
Our high school programs seek to inspire young adults to gain confidence in the outdoors, instill curiosity, develop leadership styles and explore their interests, while making new friends and creating their own adventures in the Roaring Fork Valley. ACES' environmental educators will be your guides for hands-on learning experiences at our sites and beyond!
Please contact Aspen Center for Environmental Studies if you have any questions.
