Rocky Mountain High Adventure Base
Located in the high country of southern Colorado near Poncha Springs, Rocky Mountain High Adventure Base offers white water rafting and backpacking programs in a breathtaking mountain setting. The challenge of the Rocky Mountains still awaits your unit. Our mountain program offers a diverse range of activities to meet the needs and desires of everyone attending RMHAB. You and your crew will arrive on a Sunday for a week long adventure that includes whitewater rafting, mountain trekking, mountain biking, climbing and rappelling and many other side adventures! RMHAB provides your meals and snacks on the trail and can provide tents and cooking equipment. However, if your troop does own such trail equipment it is advisable to bring gear that you are familiar with, for your own comfort and convenience. A camera is a MUST to record your Rocky Mountain Experience! Our whitewater rafting experience pits you against the roaring Arkansas River as it fights its way along the sheer rock walls of the Brown's Canyon of the Arkansas. After receiving training from our certified River Guides, your crew will join them for two days of exciting - and wet - whitewater rafting. The leaders guide has many details and it is worth the read, cover to cover. The adventure awaits. New for 2015! We have added Caving! |
