Youth Canoe Trips

These trips are designed for individuals to join and experience a wilderness canoe trip with Adventurous Christians. Summer 2025 we are only offering one trip for students going into 9-12th grade.

Sr High: Horizons 

Are you ready for the next adventure?  This experience is designed for returners and new AC campers alike who are looking for the next challenge.  The goal of this trip is to grow in Christ through service, skill, and reflection.  The group will be called on to serve one another through care and leadership. Wilderness skills such as paddling, portaging, navigation, camp set up, and campfire cooking will be practiced. Each person will be invited to dig deep in reflection on what they are experiencing. We believe spending time in God’s word on our own allows God to meet us in ways He does not get a chance to in our busy lives.  So, are you ready?

These trips are designed for individuals or small groups of friends (2-4) who want a trail experience. If you are interested in taking a larger group on a canoe trip with Adventurous Christians, click here for more details.

Please note: our camp operates within the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in the Superior National Forest.  As a BWCAW Cooperator, this business is an equal opportunity service provider.

Trip Overview

AC trip itineraries have time devoted to learning skills, Bible study and enjoying time in God’s creation. Your trip will start with one night in base, then 5 nights on trail in the BWCAW before returning to camp. 

Arriving at AC

Campers can be dropped off at AC between 1 and 3 in the afternoon on Sunday. After families have left, campers will spend the rest of the day getting to know their group mates, going through canoe orientation and packing personal gear. 

Departure on Trail

The next morning the group starts with First Word (morning devotion), eats a hearty calorie-packed breakfast, and then gets dropped off at the entry point to begin their journey.

On Trail

The group is challenged by nature and portages. The group will learn to work together to make traveling more efficient. The group will also learn navigational skills, how to identify indigenous plants and trees, and basic creation stewardship from the guide among other wisdom. The guide also leads First and Last Word to further your growth with Jesus. The group will help in preparing meals and setting up/taking down camp.

Back At Camp

On Saturday, the group returns to camp. Here they will help clean up the equipment and then clean themselves in the sauna . After the Sauna, the group comes together again in the lodge for a gut-filling banquet meal and time to debrief and discuss what they learned on their trip. Campers will be picked up by their families between 1 and 3 in the afternoon on Saturday. 

Transportation

The AC pick up/drop off location is located at the  Culver’s Parking Lot in Two Harbors, MN. Drop off is 12:00 pm on Sunday, pick up is Saturday at 3:30 pm. Please plan on eating lunch before dropping off your camper. If you would like to opt out of transportation and drop of/pick up your camper from camp, please contact the Camp Office.

The mission of Cpm is to encourage campers to take a next step in Christian faith.
