2010 Endurance Camps

Information regarding upcoming camps will be posted as soon as it is available.


Cross Country or Mountain Biking

(Maximum 60 participants)


All campers will enjoy the beauty and variety offered by the trail systems in and around Houghton, Mich. We have the Michigan Tech Trails, Maasto Hiihto, Chassell Recreation Trails, and miles of logging roads at our disposal. These are all unpaved trails, with technical single track. The camp size is limited to the first 60 applicants.

Be prepared for 1.5 to 3 hours of training per day. We will instruct campers to train at paces that are appropriate for them. However, the camp may be intense for them. Athletic trainers are available to treat injuries and minor illnesses.
