Components of the Challenge Course
There are three main components to the challenge course: Games and Initiatives, Low Elements and High Elements.
Games and Initiatives
There are activities that help break the ice. Beginning with simple tasks that require the group to work collectively, these activities lay a foundation, which allows the group to overcome more complex problems that require planning, cooperation, creativity and trust.
Low Elements
Participants move their new team working skills to activities that take place just above the ground. Similar to the initiatives, low ropes present a higher degree of difficulty in which participants rely heavily on each other, both mentally and physically.
High Elements
The High Elements focus more on the individual. Participants have the opportunity to build self-esteem by challenging comfort zones and overcoming perceived limitations. Activities may include reliance on others or equipment, climbing over obstacles, walking on cable bridges, climbing to 50 feet on the high ropes or riding the zip line.
Programming
Programs range from 1/2 day workshops up to a 3-day, 2 night experience that include meals and use of camp facilities. In addition, High Sierra's team-building workshops can be held at your school or facility providing a great introduction or follow-up experience to a day at the Adventure Center.
