About
Survival Skills Day Camp – Highlands Ranch gives campers a full week of survival-focused activities, including navigation, animal tracking, tool making, fire building and safety, hiking, and canoeing. Campers practice basic navigation skills, learn principles of Leave No Trace, observe and identify useful plants, track animals, identify scat, and work on finding food and medicine in the wild. They also fashion utensils and shelter from gathered materials, try flintknapping, learn the basics of paddling a canoe, learn water safety and canoeing equipment, read terrain to find water, and practice purifying water they find.

Avid4 Adventure operates under a Special Use authorization from the National Forest Service. Survival Skills Day Camp – Highlands Ranch is backed by the Avid4 Adventure Guarantee, which promises an authentic outdoor adventure, well-trained and professional staff, and increased confidence, and if Avid4 Adventure does not meet these promises, the next Avid4 Adventure camp is free.
Parent testimonials describe Avid4 Adventure as a well-run program where kids learn new outdoor skills and stay active. One parent shared that their child learned to ride a bike without training wheels during camp and discovered new favorite activities like stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, and biking. Other parents report that their children were eager to share what they learned each day and continued talking about camp weeks later.
