Utah: Arches, Canyonlands & the Colorado River

Bring your leadership skills to the next level! This experience is ideal for those looking to unplug and get a hefty dose of nature this summer. Make new friends, work to conserve unique ecosystems, and get intimately acquainted with the Colorado River. Learn from local leaders and meet teens from across North America (and the world!) as you spend two weeks working, playing, and learning together.

Spend a week on the Colorado River, rafting, swimming and camping your way along this picturesque wilderness with experienced guides. We'll spend time volunteering with the US National Forest Service, clearing trails and assisting with other maintenance projects. Experience the unique foods and culture of the southwest USA before heading back into nature at Arches National Park. We'll also dive deep to discover our individual paths, including exploring our leadership styles and professional and educational goals for the future. 

Highlights:

• Go on an epic, multi-night river rafting and camping expedition on the Colorado River
• Get a crash course in wilderness survival 
• Volunteer on trail maintenance projects with the National Forest Service
• Hike through Arches National Park, famed for its more than 2,000 stunning natural rock formations
