​Alpine Ridge Leadership

June 27-July 2
Ages 14-18
Develop leadership skills while enjoying stellar views of Grewingk Glacier and Kachemak Bay. On Alpine Ridge we’ll be balancing fun, learning, and trail work, helping Kachemak Bay State Park maintain trail access into a beautiful alpine landscape. Expect merriment, frigid lakes, and sun-drying on the banks.

​Fire and Ice

July 12-July 16
Ages 10-13
Explore local trails and learn skills that are essential for having adventures in the Alaskan wilderness. Camping is better when you can light a warm fire and avoid being eaten by a bear. Practice your skills on an overnight expedition to Grewingk Glacier Lake. Grewingk Lake features an epic Capture the Flag court and ice bergs thrones (if you can brave the swim).
