HIGH ADVENTURE

"I cannot describe with words what Past The Edge has done for our team of students."
~A Walker
HUMC Student LeaderPlanning meals, deciding what and how much to pack, using maps and GPS devices, setting up camp, cooking on small stoves, building a fire, leaving no trace, and hiking through the beautiful mountains of North Georgia to make it to the final destination. These things and so many principles such as vision, goal setting, strength placement, competence, etc. are all taught by PTE instructors and then learned by each group through trial, error, challenge, and success.

Hiking can be done as a one day activity, two day activity, or combined with other PTE activities to form a 2-5 day program. When combined with rock climbing the normal program time is 3 days or more.

Camping is normally done each night regardless of the activity. Unless combined with a two day hiking trip, such camping is usually done in a primitive camping area with vehicle access.
