Trip of a lifetime - Early Bird Deadline

Winter adventure in the boundary waters.

JANUARY 7-11, 2024

Camp Menogyn Winter Break Trip 1/7-1/11

Join us for a winter wonderland experience as we explore Minnesota’s Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness! For this trip we will be staying in heated cabins in YMCA’s Camp Menogyn. The Boundary Waters in winter offers a unique experience of snowshoeing and cross-country skiing up bluffs and across frozen lakes. Our day trips will include hikes to scenic overlooks, dog sledding, and a wood fired sauna with the option to do a polar plunge in the lake. During the night we will wind down by doing a group puzzle, reading by the fire, or stargazing with the chance to see the northern lights. All meals are provided by the amazing Camp Menogyn cooks. The staff will help plan out our days at camp and ensure we get the most out of our time in the beautiful Boundary Waters!
