By Road

Basecamp is located two miles south of US Highway 160. At the streetlight in Mancos, head south on Main Street (left if you’re coming from Durango); go straight through two stop signs, up two hills and down one. Turn left at the sign, and drive up the long driveway.

By Air

Durango-La Plata County Airport is the closest destination for air travel. Non-stop flights are available from Phoenix, Dallas and Denver on American and United.

By Rail

While the train is not an option for participants on Summer Expeditions, it is sometimes a viable option for groups participating in custom designed programs. Check Amtrak’s routes for more information.

 

Deer Hill has been a major part of my life, even though it has only been two summers. I always remember the leaders and the spectacular views in the mountains. I always cherish the memories made and the life lessons learned. At Deer Hill I have matured far beyond what I was when I first showed up.
