OPP Expeditions are our extended format trips, meant to journey deeper into the wilderness for much longer periods of time. These trips range from 7-10 days in length and take place all over the United States. If your looking for a grand adventure, dive head first into a new skill or see a new part of the wilderness, this is the way to do it.
Students can expect to spend several days to weeks in a backcountry setting. Backpacking and kayaking from campsite to campsite. Sleeping on the ground in tents, cooking around a campfire, exposure to unpredictable weather, and experiencing the beautiful surroundings of some of the most remote wildernesses out there. Students will learn new skills, build friendships and go from beginner hiker to a seasoned adventurer in no time!
Travel, lodging and amenities will change from trip to trip. Some trips will be driving to and from the starting location. Others will start with students flying to a specified location to meet the trip leaders. All types of transportation from driving, walking, flying, sailing and more are utilized and change depending on each trip.
