Have you ever “flown” for hundreds of feet
through the air, or enjoyed the sunrise from the summit of a mountain
in Rocky Mountain National Park? Have you ever climbed 20’
high in a tree and leapt out to catch a trapeze, or had lunch
on a lakeshore that’s above the tree line? If not, you’re
about to while taking part in Mountain Adventure at Camp Timberline!
Mountain Adventure is comprised of two traditioned aspects of
Camp: High Ropes Elements and All-Camp Hike Day. Between our different
high elements and the surrounding beauty of God’s creation,
Mountain Adventure at Camp T is unbeatable!

High ropes are by far one of the coolest aspects of Camp
Timberline! When asked what their favorite part of camp
was, many campers instinctively and excitingly said their
time “hanging out” during high ropes…pun
intended. Laden with challenge and fun, our high ropes elements
and “rides” are top tier. Campers will have
the opportunity to safely experience every component of
our course during their week at Camp T. Aside from being
totally fun and awesome, high ropes are all about experiential
learning. Each element is unique in its purpose and challenge,
varying in degree of difficulty…but all completely
safe. Some experts have said that people obtain approximately
15% of what they read and hear. They retain 83% of what
they do, and 90% when given the opportunity to reflect on
and internalize their experience. That’s what our
highly-trained ropes staff and counselors focus on –
encouraging the campers to reflect on their experience and
find ways to apply it to their life spiritually!

Every Monday each cabin group has the
opportunity to tackle some of the most beautiful areas in North
America! It’s quite obvious that God spent some extra time
on Northern Colorado! Each cabin is assigned a hike on a trail
that fits their age and ability. Their counselors, certified in
CPR and First Aid, accompany them as their guides for the hike!
Campers are encouraged to be prepared for one of the absolute
best days of camp. Some items to remember to include are, but
not limited to:
|
Backpack |
Extra layers of clothing |
Water (2 bottles) |
Sunscreen |
Camera |
Proper shoes |
Bible |
Extra pair of socks |
|
|
Get ready…it’s
going to be AWESOME!
