Camp Moonlight

Camp Moonlight is in Big Sky, Montana, near Ulery's Lake. The summer camp has access to picturesque waterfalls, forests, and more for children to enjoy and explore. The camp director is Lex Hinchey, who has experienced many outdoor adventures and aims to share her love of the wilderness and skills with the children attending.

There are a few different summer camps for children ages 5-13, ranging from 3 to 4 days per session. The camp sessions are arranged based on the experience of the young hikers, and some options require older teens since they carry heavier backpacks with more supplies.

The program educates children about the landscape around them. Topics include geology, ecology, and survival skills. Students learn to identify different plants and navigate their way to and around landmarks in the area. They partake in fun activities like canoeing, fly fishing, archery, painting, and more.

At the end of the session, campers will know how to find food, cook outdoors, and find their way through the wilderness. In addition, children are taught conservation efforts to sustain our planet for future generations.
