Trip Leader
A Trip Leader's primary focus is to further the mission of Camp Pinnacle by providing safe leadership for our adventure activities for campers ages 7-17. Activities include hiking, backpacking, rock climbing, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, canoeing, climbing tower, water zip line, team building/group initiative games, and bouldering. Trip Leaders facilitate these activities by ensuring campers understand the basic skills required and helping campers achieve success in each area!
Trip Leaders are responsible for the planning, implementing, and leading of fun and safe backpacking, day hiking, canoeing, mountain biking, rafting, and climbing trips, alongside the Director of Adventure Programming and the Head of Trips.
While leading trips off-camp is a huge part, our trip leaders are a big part of our camp community! Trip Leaders are often helping with evening activities, helping out with cabins, and creating magical moments for campers on and off camp property.
