Western Adventures
Deer Hill Expeditions- "Can you see yourself sleeping under the stars in a forest of aspen
trees, floating down a pristine river beneath towering canyon walls, or learning about the traditional cultures of the Navajo, Hopi, or Zuni people? Deer Hill is an adventure summer camp for teenagers,
featuring wilderness adventures like rafting, rock climbing, hiking and mountain biking, conservation work, and service projects with native communities. We run 9 sessions each summer, from 2-4 weeks long, for students in 7th-12th grades. We also create fun and enriching custom-designed programs for schools and families, based around your unique goals."
