Outdoor Living Skills

Roughing It's wilderness counselor teaches campers many outdoor living skills: wilderness survival, outdoor cooking (3rd grade and above), tent pitching, basic first aid, and compass and map reading. The trails and trees of the reservoir provide a great environment for hiking, orienteering courses and mountain rescues. Outdoor cooking is a favorite activity, where campers learn to cook meals that can be eaten on hiking trips, such as cake in an orange and biscuit on a stick.
