We do one week-long car-camping adventure trip each summer. Each year we alternate between Squamish and the North Cascades.  Activities include camping, hiking, cragging, alpine climbing and paddling.  We need volunteers throughout the week.  Volunteers are welcome to come for a few days or the entire week.  We'll feed you breakfast and dinner each day, and you are welcome to camp with us!

Prerequisites: The basic requirement for this trip is the lead climb/belay badge. For higher level climbs, the appropriate skills badges are required - multi-pitch for any multi-pitch/alpine rock routes, crevasse rescue for glacier climbs, WFA for backpacks, etc.
