Lost in the Vermont Wild

We recommend this trip to be 2 nights in the woods or longer.  The pricing of the trip is based on 2 nights and two days in the woods.

Have you ever been lost? This program is designed to bring a group together so that they can "survive" or for just a few people to have a fun wilderness experience.  The program is designed to be fun and challenging, it is well supervised so you are not actually lost but it may feel like you are with the tasks that we have you do.  You will be brought to a remote piece of wilderness while blindfolded.  You will be given supplies to use throughout the time lost.  There will be goals that must be reached and a helpful prize given for each task completed.  Some examples of tasks are: start a fire, catch a fish to eat, build shelter, and help an injured group member.  The whole time you are lost you will be learning survival techniques and even some friendly games.  Remember you are in nature you could get lucky and have starry nights or you could have rain.  We recommend that people dress for rain because all you will take into the wild is what you have on your back.  This is fun and brings people together and gets them back to basics and back to nature.
