We’ll travel through 500 Million years in just five days, starting by exploring how the mountains first formed. Things could get a little “rocky” as we use crafts and games to traverse “lava rivers”, explore the ancient wildlife that lived here (yeah we’re talking dinosaurs!), and learn how Appalachian land has been used and cared for over time. We’ll end our time travel journey back in the present, marveling at the amazing wildlife we share the mountains with today!Rising 6th-8thWildlife Trek (Session 1) Off-SiteWith off-property adventures to incredible Appalachian wildlife hotspots, we'll explore worlds big and small through the lens of a camera. We'll climb high and low to capture the immense biodiversity of the region, and through the use of Community Science tools like iNaturalist, our wildlife photos will contribute vital information to scientists in the Appalachian region and beyond. Campers are invited to bring their own camera equipment if they would prefer, but should be aware that cell phones are not permitted, and the majority of camp days are spent outdoors in the elements. We've got transportation covered to each offsite location, with daily drop-off and pick-up at the Arboretum.Disclaimer: In this camp we’ll be exploring different locations around the Asheville area. Campers should be ready and able to spend up to 2 hours of travel time in the car as we journey to these exciting destinations
