Mini Expedition – WY – Curt Gowdy

New for 2026! Small and mighty, the 3-Day Mini Expedition is designed for campers of all experience and ability levels. Campers explore stunning natural landscapes by day and sleep under the stars by night, building skills, confidence, friendships, and connection along the way.

Together the group (max of 13 campers with two highly trained instructors) get right to it upon arrival. The group starts by setting up a shared campsite guaranteed to forge bonds and giggles. Once their home base is ready, the campers dive right in – with new adventures each day. Sport adventures include climbing real rock, learning to balance on rascally paddle boards, and practicing essential outdoor living skills—all while working together as a supportive expedition team.

For some campers, the highlight of Mini Expo Camp is learning to cook meals under the open sky and open flame of camp stoves. In just a few days, campers gain real outdoor know-how and the confidence to take on even bigger adventures in the future.

Mini Expos may be short in duration, however, these 3-day camps pack a powerful adventure—one that sparks confidence, builds community, and creates memories that last far beyond the trip.

Difficulty Rating: 1 – Entry Level Adventure: Great for newcomers and those looking to try multiple activities for a range of experiences while becoming more comfortable with recreating outside. 

Wilderness Rating: 1 – Improved Site Camping: Campers sleep in basecamp tents. No access to showers, or running water. Campers will have access to portable toilets or pit toilets that do not have flush capabilities. All water is brought to site filtered and used for drinking, hand washing, and food preparation.

Located 24 miles West of Cheyenne, Curt Gowdy sits at the foothills of the Laramie Mountains, a gorgeous mix of lush meadows, low hills, and striking granite crags.
