High Adventure |
Get out of the house and into the excitement offered at one of the BSA's High Adventure Bases! High Adventure is a chance to try something you may never experience again. So take adventure to the limit. You'll never forget it. You've got three choices: a unique aquatic quest at the Florida Sea Base; a canoeing or winter camping challenge at the Northern Tier; or a wild west backpacking expedition at the Philmont Scout Ranch. All three bases have year-round opportunities.
