While on the trail, groups will experience the 1.2 million acre treasure of pristine wilderness that is overflowing with over 1,200 lakes, rivers, and streams. In this beautiful classroom, groups will engage with nature, grow in faith, and share with one another. In addition to paddling and exploring the beauty each day, the groups participate in quite times, intentional conversations about faith, and life stories, an opportunity to hear the stories of each person’s life. The Senior High Boundary Waters Experience is essential to creating rich community while strengthening faith.
This week long trip begins on a Saturday and ends the following Friday. Groups begin their experience with an evening at our base camp on Mine Lake, near Ely, Minnesota. Here the groups meet their BWX Trail Guide and prepare for their journey. The following morning they are launched on the trail. After six days of adventure, groups exit the wilderness mid-day on Friday, with a brief stop at the base camp to unpack and say good-bye, before heading home.
The BWX offers a wide range of discussion content for your week on trail. Each group gets to choose which type of Christian Content they would like to engage in on this adventure. In addition to the ones listed, our Trail Guides enjoy creating new material based off your hopes and wishes for the week.
