Explore the pristine northern Rocky Mountain wilderness with our action packed summer outdoor adventure programs. We travel through The Grand Tetons, Yellowstone National Park, and Montana's Big Sky country offering a multi-dimensional experience focusing on fun, friendship, teamwork, and leadership. Exciting outdoor adventures include: mountain biking, whitewater rafting, whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, fly fishing, orienteering, canoeing, mountaineering, backpacking, hiking, wildlife watching and photography, swimming, hot springs, sightseeing and more! Our staff is well trained to ensure a safe camp experience.

Camping with Adventurequest provides a great and unique environment for young people to learn and grow. Campers participate in cooking group meals, pitching camp, making daily activity choices, etc...

Traveling and camping is a great way to explore the wild west. Adventurequest travels in new fifteen passenger vans driven by our mature and proffessional staff that is atleast twenty five years old with a clean driving record, and yes, the vans have CD players! Most of our travels are short, but there are a few times we will need to travel greater distances making the longest ride about three hours long. (It's a big country).

Our campgrounds are a mix of front country National Forest and National Park sites with all the amenities, and some of the most spectacular primitive backountry campsites in the rockies. Typically we stay at these campgrounds three to five nights before we pack up and move on to our next adventure. Showers and laundry are available at some of the campsites, and we stop periodically along the way when they are not available. Phone calls will be made at previously schedualed times so that parents can anticipate and plan to be available to take the calls.

Food is essential! Our gourmet camp menu has everything from standard hamburger and hot dog cook outs to freshly baked breads and cakes! Thats right! you can learn how to bake cakes, lasagna, and anything else you can whip up in your kitchen at home! The campers prepare and cook all breakfasts and dinners. Everyday it will be a different team of two or three campers and one of the guides who get to try thier culinary skills. The results are delicious! Lunches are usually made at breakfast from a nutritious spread of sandwiches, fruit, trailmix and other popular foods to be packed in our daypacks and taken along on our daily adventure.

Daily camp life is fun and easy. Campers are given choices and challenge themselves with each activity. Our guides are highly skilled providing a safe opportunity for campers to try new things. At the end of each day while sitting around the camp fire we reflect on the great accomplishments and achievements both by individuals and those of our group. By the time everyone has told thier stories, the campfire has burned down, millions of brilliant stars fill the sky, and everyone is ready for bed so that they can recharge for another exciting day.

Adventurequest is a small locally owned and operated camp dedicated to enriching young lives. Our programs, with a four to one camper to guide ratio, provide a higher quality experience other large scale, non-local camps cannot match. Through excellent leadership and a personalized approach to learning Adventurequest has achieved outstanding results.

Here is what former Adventurequesters and thier parents have said about thier experience with us:

-Dear Adventurequest,

Zephyr Adventures is a Montana-based organization that runs multisport educational trips for adults. We call our trips "camps" to remind you of the great time you had as a kid - but we base our camps in hotels and eat in restaurants. Our main philosophy is to introduce what can be intimidating sports without the stress normally involved!

We have a Summer Multisport Adventure, a Winter Multisport Adventure, and Learn-to-Skate Camps. It is never too late to learn a new sport!

Rites of Passage is an old phrase. Our ancestors, the Native Americans, the Africans and many of the worlds cultures know its value.

Over time, many of us have lost the wisdom of the Rites of Passage. Now is the time to bring it back. Our ancestors knew how to live with the Earth. In todays world, we are forced into technology, materialism, subdivisions, cell phones, computers and on and on. It gets harder and harder to connect with Nature and our own natural cycles.

The Rite of Passage is a time to honor the individual that is in "change". There are 6 phases involved: Acknowledgment, Separation, Discovery, Silence, Initiation and Celebration.

We travel into the wilderness and we find ourselves, our true selves.

We will learn the Medicine Wheel and how it affects our lives. We will connect with the 4 Elements of Air-Water-Fire-Earth. We will learn how to make fire from our bare hands. We will think about our lives. We will spend time alone. We will discover who we are. We will learn to honor ourselves. We will begin to live.

During the silence phase, we will adventure into a time of quiet. The native people call it the Vision Quest. It is the most powerful experience that we know of. It is the climax of the Rite of Passage Journey. Once complete with the Vision Quest, the person will have transformed themselves into something new. This new person is one who they, themselves has designed.

Very powerful.

The Sweat Lodge is an ancient initiation, where hot rocks are brought into a small confined area. Within the lodge, we sing, silence and focus on our lives. It is a purification ceremony. It is cleansing.

Upon return, the person is greeted by some of his family members and life-long mentors. They meet "for the first time" ... again.

This journey is not for the light at heart. It is ceremony and ritual and it will change our lives... should we give it a chance.

Are you ready?

We invite you to join us.
