The 8th Grade class put their outdoor program skills to the test last week in the deepest gorge in North America. Challenged with rain, wind and even a little snow and hail, the 8th grade students covered 16 miles along the winding and sometimes steep Snake River Trail. Over the course of the 5 days and 4 nights, students became more comfortable packing and carrying their gear, more competent setting and breaking camp, and had a lot of fun just hangin’ out in camp. The 8th graders also got to know Kyle, Sox, Doh and Jason, a few 10th grade exchange students from the Broadway Campus, who joined the trip to round out their year at Riverstone. All were treated to a great team- and character- building experience and should be proud of what they’ve accomplished!
