I booked the bikes and paid the nominal fee for having the bikes transported to the trail head. I made a huge mistake in my calendar thinking I booked for a Tuesday but I actually booked for Monday--my fault. Four of us were riding that day and had driven over 7 hours from Southern Idaho. Route of the Hiawatha employees were so gracious and supplied us bikes only charging me for an additional transportation fee which I willingly and with gratitude paid. The entire experience was worth every penny, and I highly recommend using this business to book your experience if you do not have your own bikes.

Just bring your paper targets and you're set. There's staple guns there for you to use, decent bathrooms in between the pistol and rifle range. Plenty of parking. Think I've only seen it manned once but that's alright, majority of the people are respectful and clean up. During the winter, weekday mornings it's usually empty, maybe one two folks here. I'm sure summer time gets busy. It's a short drive from Coeur d'Alene but worth the trip if you want an actual "range" experience vs just in the woods.

My son just finished a summer program at Explorations. Knowing what I know now, I am shocked by the…read morenegative reviews and it's strange to me that they were not written by the parents of the kids who sent their kids there but from the kids (now adults) themselves, which makes it slightly less credible in my mind. I feel compelled to write this review because the negative reviews scared us so much that we almost didn't go through with the program and what a mistake that would have been! Our 14 year old son was there all summer. He went against his will. From the first phone call we had with him (2 weeks in), we could tell he was not only safe but also comfortable and happy (despite his anger for having been pushed to do something he didn't volunteer for). Penny and Mark were so good with him all along. As the weeks passed, we watched our son mature and grow and be held accountable to the highest degree. My husband joined them for the family float trip and was so impressed with Todd, Penny, one of the alumns that had come back to join the summer trip, and with the rest of the staff. At one point, our son even told us "it's better than home here." He is coming back from his summer experience and we are hoping that the changes we have seen from him are lasting changes, but regardless, I felt compelled to write this review to share our experience as our personal experience was nothing but positive, and we almost didn't do the program because of the negative reviews. If you are considering this program, go visit in person or do a Zoom call and ask to speak directly with some of the kids there. That was very telling for us and put us at ease. Good luck to anyone who is considering something like this!

This was 25 years ago, so things may have changed since then. I was 13, doing fairly typical…read more13-year-old things such as sneaking out, getting in trouble at school, and smoking marijuana. One morning I woke up around 4 AM to two strangers in my bedroom telling me they were taking me to a "camp." I had no idea what was going on, but ultimately ended up attending Explorations initial 30 day wilderness hiking experience - I was with a group of other "troubled teens "in the Arizona desert with nothing but a pack on my back that was heavier than me, not able to shower the entire time, and hiking miles and miles every day. After this, I lived with Penny & Lorne's (sp?) family for a few months with other teens that supposedly needed further "treatment," and was supposed to stay and begin school there. I saw and experienced many things while I was there, e.g. they made me sleep in a chicken coop as a form of discipline one night, one of the other girls snuck in marijuana that some of the teens smoked, they temporarily had us stay in a remote cabin that was filled with a cabinet of alcohol that some of us drank, people injured during the 30 day hike or trying to run away, Penny watching a show on HBO about prostitutes with some of the teens that lived with her (seems a bit inappropriate given the supposed therapeutic setting and ages of the teens), having to put phone calls with your parents on speaker or read their letters out loud, staff making you hang up if you said anything negative about the program, teens being isolated with nothing but a small bag of food and a tarp for nights in the snow, during which I personally came face-to-face with a coyote, wolf, or something similar that I literally thought was going to kill me in the middle of the night, etc. I did not personally witness any physical or sexual abuse like some other reviews mention thank God, although one of the female counselors was a masseuse, and gave one of the teen females a full body massage as a birthday present. I was also able to engage in a physical relationship with one of the male teens there for over a month until another teen told staff. I was ultimately kicked out literally in a 24 hour Period because I "needed more individual attention" than they could provide. They suddenly called me into their home office one night and asked if I would like to go home, I thought it was a joke at first, but sure enough I flew home the next day with my parents. I had no idea at the time why this happened. However, coincidentally, this was right after I disclosed to staff and the other teens that I was aware of a sexual relationship between two of the counselors, which was not allowed - one of the counselors left her journal out, and of course, being a "troubled teen "I read it and it detailed their sexual escapades quite explicitly. I also cursed out one of the staff members in front of Penny's young daughter, but given their clientele can only imagine this has happened tens or hundreds of times and would not be a reason for them to lose the significant amount of money that they would have made had I remained living and gone to school there. Overall, I did not have as bad of an experience as it sounds like some others did, however, I am now a psychiatric nurse practitioner in practice for 10 years, having gone to school for 10 years for this, and can say that there was absolutely no therapeutic Value in this non-recovery-oriented, for profit program. I'm sure there are high-quality wilderness therapy programs out there that can promote recovery, but in my opinion, as someone who attended this program and now as a mental health professional, this is not one of them.
