Why Choose GMA?

Low Camper-to-Guide Ratio
All of our programs have a maximum camper-to-guide ratio of 6:1, ensuring each participant receives individualized attention and support.

Our Guides
Our guides are hand-picked from the local community based on their extensive wilderness experience and skills, intimate knowledge of the local environment and terrain, and youth service experience (as teachers, coaches, mentors, parents, etc.).

Focus on Developing Relationships
As an outdoor adventure camp in the local community for 17 years, we’ve enjoyed the opportunity to witness the personal growth of many returning campers as they develop confidence in themselves and their ability to relate with peers in a group setting. Our programs are very small and inclusive, without much room or opportunity for cliques to form. We encourage a “come as you are” ethic where campers can be fully themselves, without external pressure to act or perform in a certain way.

Flexible to your Personal Needs
Worried about your camper's food allergies, UV sensitivity? Another advantage of being a small operation is our ability to meet most reasonable needs particular to each camper.
