Wildwood Ranch presents a non-traditional camping experience through our Exodus Adventure Camps.

Exodus means "going out" . . . to get out of the patterns of our normal mundane existence, to move into new frontiers, to live life in a way that we can know God in a real and personal way. Hike into the wilderness carrying everything you need in a backpack, canoe a river, go rock climbing, rappelling and accomplish other things that you have never experienced. We want you to consider God's great creation - and your own potential - in ways you never have before!

This year's edition of Exodus Adventure Camps include the following experiences (all are for ages 14 - 17):

Huron River Canoe Trip (June 23 - 27, 2008)
Canoe the beautiful Huron River. Enjoy the adventure of camping on the river bank. No previous canoeing experience is needed.

Huron - Manistee National Forest Backpack Trip (Trip #1: July 14-18, 2008; Trip #2: July 28-August 1; Trip #3: August 11-15, 2008) This intermediate backpack trip takes place in the only National  Forest in Michigan’s lower peninsula. Sandy, rolling and forested hills make this the ideal spot to spend on the trails.
