Challenge Courses
Learning Team Building & Problem Solving
Wyonegonic offers a three-part Challenge Course Program that encourages campers to learn skills in team building, problem solving, developing trust, and taking safe risks.
Climbing Wall
Our multiple-course climbing wall offers varying degrees of difficulty for all ages. Campers learn proper safety and climbing techniques. Teamwork is developed as climbing partners learn from our certified instructors how to support the climber with proper belaying skills. Climbers are challenged individually and gain great satisfaction in reaching the top of the wall.
Low Ropes
Campers from both Junior, Intermediate, and Senior Camp use the Low Course.
Team Building
Wyonegonic also has group initiative elements like the 3-D Spiders Web, Maze, and Nitro Crossing. Campers work together to solve challenges, and instructors can tailor difficulty depending on age, experience, and group dynamics.
Communication skills, leadership, and working together are important life skills that campers learn while performing these fun challenges together. Many group initiative projects do not require special equipment and can be excellent activities for girls out of camp on Wilderness Trips .
High Ropes
The High Ropes course is designed for Senior Campers. This course consists of numerous high elements, many of which are 30 feet above the ground. Some of the elements include Burma Bridge, Playpen, Zap Line, Space Loops, Trapeze Jump, and Giants Ladder.
Safety is paramount in this program and all staff are certified instructors. Campers practice their skills on the ground before progressing to the more advanced elements. Interested campers work on leadership skills by learning to belay and assist in the course under staff supervision.
