Scouts BSA Klondike Survival Challenge

Do you have what it takes to survive the final leg to Dawson City?

In 1896, fortune seekers from around the world rushed to the Yukon Territory in search of gold. This winter, your troop will retrace their journey—braving the cold, pushing through the wilderness, and pulling your sled toward the legendary town of Dawson City. Along the trail, your patrol will be tested in ways that require teamwork, resourcefulness, and Scout know-how. Can your crew endure the frontier and reach your destination?

This is a day-only event, but troops and patrols may choose to camp for the weekend.  All camping reservations must be made separately through the Cricket Holler camp rentals page.

Lunch: Provided for all participants

Arrow of Light Scouts: May attend only with a host troop

Gear up for a high-adventure day in the spirit of the Klondike Gold Rush—sleds ready, skills sharp, and patrols united!
