Get out of the house and into the excitement offered at one of the
BSA's High Adventure Bases! You've got three choices: a unique aquatic
quest at the Florida Sea Base; a canoeing or winter camping challenge at
the Northern Tier; or a wild west backpacking expedition at the Philmont
Scout Ranch.
Make a splash! Head to the Florida Keys and dive into an amazing
Florida Sea Base adventure and wade into more excitement than you ever
though possible. Snorkeling, SCUBA, boating, and beach camping are among
the many possibilities.
Don't miss the boat! One of the most beautiful, and remote parts of
North America offers a unique opportunity for Scouts. Canoeing, hiking,
fishing, and winter camping in and around the beautiful lakes of
northern Minnesota and southern Canada await you at the Northern Tier.
Take a hike! The mountains of New Mexico offer the adventure that you
have always dreamed about. Backpacking, rock climbing, western lore,
living history, and the views from peaks over 10,000 feet tall will make
memories that last a lifetime.
High Adventure is a chance to try something you may never experience
again. So take adventure to the limit. You'll never forget it.

Located at the world-famous Philmont Scout Ranch, the Philmont
Training Center has served as the National Training Center of the Boy
Scouts of America since 1950. Thousands of Scouters and their families
have enjoyed the fun, fellowship, and education summer.
A wide range of conferences are offered by the divisions and
committees of the National Council. Scouters must be approved by their
council and are challenged to return and share the information in local
training.
While a Scouter is participating in a conference, every member of his
or her family (from infants to adult children) is involved in a full
schedule of age-specific activities. After hours fun for the entire
family is also offered.
The Training Center also has year-around facilities for Scouting
conferences and training events, and hosts local council Wood Badge
courses.
