My Experience So Far

Doing the Carleton

Stage 1

CCC Group 7’s exciting14-day outdoor expedition takes place in New Brunswick’s Mount Carleton area, which is an Appalachian wilderness region located mainly within Mount Carleton Provincial Park. Using a chalet base for introduction training, the course then leads CCC members on a snowshoe expedition with snowmobile support linking a network of backcountry rustic cabins. Training will cover a range of winter outdoor living skills. The training goals relate to outdoor leadership, environmental stewardship and backcountry competencies.
