Four Trails Leader, trip leader

Four Trails Leaders will be responsible for the day-to-day management of a group of high school aged campers as they participate in multi-day backpacking, canoe and adventure trips. These trips take place in primitive, backcountry environments throughout New Hampshire and Maine and are led exclusively by Leaders with support from Coordinators who remain on-site at Merrowvista. Trip length ranges from 5 to 16 days and the relative difficulty of each trip varies, but all require personal, physical fitness and strong mental fortitude. Extensive training in wilderness safety, adventure skills and backcountry protocols will be provided.

When not on trail, leaders will participate in all camp programming and activities alongside their cabin group and co-staff. Four Trails Leaders will live in a cabin or tent with their campers and will co-lead the group in pairs or trios, ensuring the safety and well being of every camper. Four Trails Leaders will lead campers through daily routines, facilitate a positive communal living experience.
