From starry skies to sandy slopes, camp was next level at GreatSandDunesNPS! 🏜️✨ In June, Peterson Space Force Base’s Youth Summer Programs kids spent the night at Piñon Flats Campground as part of a special outdoor adventure with the NationalParkService and AirForceOutdoors. They kicked things off with a warm welcome and ranger program, learning about the Native tribes who once called the area home. Then it was time to hit the dunes for sand sledding! 🏂 After camping under the stars, the group hiked the next morning and wrapped up their trip by being sworn in as Junior Rangers, pledging to protect the park and recreate responsibly. 💚🏞️ #GreatSandDunes #BuddyBison #MilitaryFamilies #OutdoorAdventure #JuniorRangers #NationalParkService #CampingTrip #Sandboarding #PublicLandsForAll #ParkTrustKids
