How do you ensure course safety?
Safety is our first priority on every Mullins Camp program. Knowledgeable and experienced counselors supervise all activities. To provide the best instruction available, we employ rock climbing, rafting, glacier travel and kayaking specialists. During special activity sections, guides work with our counselors and campers providing expert knowledge and increased supervision.

Campers who have completed fourth, fifth, and sixth grades come to Mullins Camp. We strive to include campers from diverse backgrounds and fill programs equally with male and female participants. A female and a male instructor lead all programs.

What is the ratio of campers to instructors?
Our camper to staff ratio averages 4:1. On special activity sections it may be as many as 2:1. The maximum group size is 10 campers in each tent group.

How much time do you spend driving?
Our Wyoming base camp is just ten minutes from the Jackson Hole Airport! We provide transportation for campers to and from St. Louis, Chicago and our Ozark camp.

What does a camper get out of camp?
LOTS! Including: leadership and teamwork experience, increased self-confidence, and substantial wilderness skills. Campers take home a greater appreciation of themselves, others, the wilderness and memories to last a lifetime! As one camper said "I came to learn to rock climb, and I did that, but I went home with so much more...new friends, new ways of living, and a new outlook on life."
