Due to popular demand, Skyline's two-week camp returns in 2026 — this time featuring ADAPTATION, a camper favorite from 2020!
Throughout both weeks, campers will tackle large-scale puzzle solving and games. Sasquatch sightings have been reported...
Week one brings progressive rustic camping: campers will journey across Skyline's property, setting up camp at different sites as they explore longtime Skyline favorites as well as our new wetland property. Look forward to stargazing, science experiments and puzzle solving, stalking night critters and playing games by moonlight with friends. Campers will set up and sleep in tents, cook some of their own meals, filter their drinking water, and master wilderness skills on a looser schedule than usual. They will be expected to live simply and work in teams to accomplish all the set up, clean up, hauling and cooking that rustic camping entails. Campers will also have plenty of time for play and recreation. Adaptation campers are welcome to bring their own personal tent or camping hammocks. Week two transitions to cabin life. This session includes an onsite weekend Friday July 10th to Sunday July 12th.
When registering, please select: Rustic and Trip Camp, then Adaptation + Session E (includes weekend stay).
* Note: campers must have attended Camp Skyline for at least one previous summer session to register for these camps or meet with our Overnight Camp Director before being considered.

RIFLE RIVER TRIP *
Ages 12-15 | $850 PER SESSION
Session F | July 19-24
This progressive camping trip explores one of Michigan's beautiful rivers and is beginner-friendly. Campers will explore different sections of the Rifle River, traveling approximately 120 miles northwest of Skyline.
Campers will sleep in cabins at Skyline on Sunday and Thursday nights, with Monday through Wednesday nights spent in tents at outposts along the river. Each day, campers will set up camp at different sites, cook their own meals, and navigate by the river's rhythm. Campers will wear PFDs on the water, practice outdoor skills, and experience the thrill of a true expedition. Skyline will provide all necessary equipment including waterproof dry bags to carry gear. Each camper receives their own waterproof bag to pack their personal items.
Campers will be expected to pack lightly, live simply and work in teams to accomplish all the set up, clean up, hauling and cooking that rustic camping entails. Campers will also have plenty of time for play and recreation.
