We were able to visit and stay at Aravada Springs last summer with our young men's youth group. We had about 28 young men and 8 youth leaders. Several things about that ranch make it an ideal place to bring youth groups too. The history of the ranch and the sacrifice that was made to make it in the Mojave desert was amazing. So to have the boys hear those stories and then spend some time visiting the sites built up an appreciation for those that have come before us. We went on several hikes that have a very unique beauty that you won't get anywhere else. The ranch itself has great accommodations that allowed us to have a rustic experience as well as modern amenities like showers, commercial grade kitchen, and sleeping arrangements with beds. There were so many activities and things to do, but also plenty of space and areas to have peace and quiet moments of reflection and contemplation. I'm grateful the boys had a chance to visit and stay at Aravada Springs. It will be a trip they will spend years talking about.
