The camp is nestled in a timbered setting at an elevation of 5,600 feet. The instructions are both in the classroom and in the surrounding forest. We will provide opportunities for educators to learn about the management of different private and public forested lands, fire ecology, biological diversity, and water quality as it all relates to us on a watershed level. Field trips will be taken to nearby logging sites, saw mills, and a co-generation plant.
