The Sample the Rockies Camp is an action packed short version of our longer youth adventures!  This adventure is great for first timers who want to experience the excitement of the Canadian Rockies but are not sure that a long trip is what they want (yet!) , or for those who already have a busy summer planned and only have time for a quick trip.  Spend a week traveling the majestic Canadian Rockies and “sample” all of the activities that would be included in a longer trip.  By the last day we’re confident that you’ll wish it was longer!
