Yough Adventure

This camp is for adrenaline junkies with lots of energy. On Monday we'll prepare for our trip, climb Tussey Mountain and do the tower and swing. On Tuesday we'll head out of camp and backpack ten miles on the ridges of the Allegheny Mountains, following the Laurel Highlands Trail. Next we'll explore the Ohiopyle State Park Area with its beautiful natural water slides and Cucumber Falls. On Wednesday we'll bike on the Allegheny Passage Bike Trail, and on Thursday it's whitewater rafting down the Youghiogheny River - nine miles of class I, II and III rapids with trained outfitters.
