OMSI offers outdoor school, summer camps and family weekends at this camp in the middle of the Clarno Unit of the John Day Fossil Beds. Our family has attended the Memorial Day Weekend Camp twice and have been thrilled each time. Offering hikes of different lengths, difficulties and themes along with interest groups in reptiles and amphibians, rock climbing, skulls skins and bones, lapidary, birds of prey, early Oregon skills, astronomy, geology, fossils, plant and animal adaptations, pictographs and survival there is much to learn, explore and enjoy. Specific offerings changed some in the nine years between our visits, but the high quality of the program is consistent.
