We don't stop gathering just because it's winter! While we're working on securing a cabin of our own, we currently rent spaces for our cold-weather weekend and week-long overnight programming from other organizations across Vermont and the Upper Valley.

Here you see two youth teaming up to navigate a sled of extra gear and food out of Dartmouth's Class of '66 Lodge in Etna, NH, one of our absolute favorite spots!
