Join our very own Mrs. Frizzle to learn the secret language of birds and some local specie. Birds love bugs, and if you do too, we will capture creepy, crawly bugs using our hands, pitfall traps, funnel traps, potato traps and finger traps. We will get up close and personal with Tarantulas and more with a visit to the Bug Museum in Santa Fe.
The story of Robin Hood evokes clever and thoughtful adventures in the woods, stealthy river crossings, balancing on logs and fine homes in trees. How did this merry band of men and women keep their camp secretly hidden from foes? What were these skills of invisibility they had, enabling them to watch over the forest, unseen all the while? How did they defend themselves, cook, heal their wounds and spend their leisure time? We’ll have opportunities to explore these age old secrets of the woodland life and adventures over the week, while delving into the classic tale of Robin Hood and his band of brave women and men, as handed down through the generations.

During this week we will explore survival basics: fire, water, shelters, archery and trapping techniques. How did our ancestors and the peoples native to this land feed, clothe and provide tools for themselves? Much of these materials come from animals small and large from land, river and sea. We will learn how different traps are made for which animals, when and when and how to make them. No animals will be trapped in the process and safety will be discussed and practiced throughout the camp.
Getting dirty has to be one of the greatest joys of childhood! This week we will learn about mud, clay and camouflage in a variety of ways. We’ll muck in the mud, create with clay, and combine both art forms to camouflage ourselves in nature. We’ll become stealthy stalkers in sneaking and hiding games and be ready for a good scrub after this week of muddy fun!

This is where the fun begins for our campers. Learn how to prepare for a hike and stay safe in the wilderness. Campers will learn the four cardinal directions, how to find north without a compass, signaling for help, and the importance of attitude in a survival situation. Survival shelters (and forts!) will be a key activity this week. Older campers will explore wilderness skills in more depth while planting the seeds of exploration and adventure in a safe, fun, and engaging environment.

Whether you are a beginner or an intermediate rider, grab your mountain bike and get tuned up for some riding adventures! Riders will learn tips for riding single track, trail etiquette, and riding smart. We will ride at La Tierra where there is plenty of single-track and a great flow track full of whoop-de-doos and yehaws. We will split the group according to age and skill. If we get some really hot days, we will reward ourselves by heading to a cool, watery location!
Animal lovers unite! This week our very own Mrs. Frizzle will join us to learn about some of the amazing animals and insects of New Mexico. We will examine animal tracks and signs on our hikes in nature and we’ll examine pelts and skulls of local mammals. We will learn about bird language, look for birds in the wild.
We will also get up close and personal with bugs. Wade Harrell, owner of The Bug Museum), will teach us trap and release methods for insects, and we’ll get a special tour of the Bug Museum. Of course, making new friends and plenty of play is a part of any Mountain Kids! adventure.

Learn everything you have ever wanted to know about survival shelters and gain wilderness survival skills in this week long adventure. What is a debris hut and how it is different than a wicki-up? Why won’t a stick fort keep me warm and dry, and how can I make it so it will? We will learn about survival shelters and about primitive and modern fire-making techniques, and make our own food over the fire on our overnight campout. Campers will need their own camping gear.
