The Widji program has been carefully crafted to offer progressive challenge and growth for teens ages 12-18. As campers return to Widji year after year for more challenging trips, they build upon their wilderness skills and take on greater leadership roles.
All of Widjiwagan’s adventures, from the Introductory BWCAW canoe trips to the Mountaineer or Voyageur expeditions, incorporate our mission to provide a fun, quality wilderness experience that fosters respect for self, community, and the environment. The advanced tripping program gives experienced, qualified campers the added opportunity and challenge of traveling in more remote areas for a longer duration.
Campers who are currently in the 10th and 12th grades are eligible for advanced trips. They are invited to participate by demonstrating an enthusiasm for wilderness travel, initiative and an ability to work well with others. These trips provide an opportunity for campers to continue to develop and refine their skills in the areas of wilderness travel, group dynamics and leadership.
