2026 Montana High Adventure Base Council Contingent **SUSPENDED**

MOHAB 2027 - TWC High Adventure Committee
Join the Tidewater Council HAC for an unforgettable trek and pack rafting trip to the Montana Outdoor High Adventure Base (MOHAB) in the Summer 2027!
MOHAB is unlike any other base. Its remote location and treks going into the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex offer many possibilities. With the rugged wilderness and the multi-sport expedition format, each trek becomes a truly unique experience. Participants will explore pristine landscapes, take on challenging physical and team-building experiences, while growing in independence and leadership throughout the adventure.
Whether hiking mountain ridges, floating alpine rivers, or casting a line in secluded streams and lakes, MOHAB delivers a high-adventure experience that’s both humbling and empowering.
The base only offers 2 Crews a week for 6 weeks and those spots fill up fast when they are released. The Tidewater Council HAC is gearing up to reserve 1 (hopefully 2) crew spots for Session 2 of the 2027 season (June 27 – July 4, 2027). Actual trip dates, including travel, will be June 26 – July 5, 2027.
Spots will be limited. Contact Mohab2027twc@gmail.com for more information.
