Breakwater Expeditions: River and Rocks, Utah Recently Updated

Breakwater is a trusted leader in guiding transformative, therapeutic, and custom wilderness journeys. Our teen trips foster meaningful growth—where nature, challenge, and connection come together. Teens unplug from distractions and step into wild spaces with peers to build teamwork, resilience, and self-confidence. These are more than trips—they’re launchpads for adaptability, strength, and friendships that last well beyond summer.

This adventure is designed for teens seeking a journey that blends excitement, skill-building, and personal growth. Our trip begins in Salt Lake City, Utah, where participants will meet before heading south to Green River. After camping at the State Park, we'll paddle through the stunning Labyrinth Canyon, where the desert landscape and peaceful waters offer the perfect setting for teamwork and learning new paddling skills. 

As the days unfold, teens will gain confidence in navigating the river’s gentle currents and enjoy breathtaking views of red cliffs and desert sunsets. Next, we’ll dive into canyoneering, exploring slot canyons and pushing personal boundaries with activities like rappelling and rock scrambling. After a refreshing break at a vacation rental to recharge, we’ll wrap up the journey with one final night near Salt Lake City. This trip promises unforgettable moments, lasting friendships, and new skills that will stay with participants long after the adventure ends.
