Teens directly experience day trips to inspirational natural areas throughout the Tucson Basin, including the saguaro studded Tucson Mountains, Santa Rita Mountain canyons, the crisp forests of the Santa Catalina Mountains and cool desert streams. The Get Outside! eco-program culminates with an overnight camp out designed to accentuate skills acquired throughout the program.
