Lead Explorer Advisor L. Queriapa, center, and four Post 125 Explorers accept their certificates of appreciation from the Military Order of World Wars.
What was a bad day for a mountain squirrel, turned out to be a good meal for Post 125.
Once skinned and properly cleaned, the mountain squirrel proved to be a hearty meal.
Border Patrol Advisors and other volunteers provided their knowledge and expertise to teach the young Explorers how to not only survive in the wilderness, but to thrive.
All of Post 125 Explorers are either form Nogales or Rio Rico, AZ and have little to no experience in high-altitude environments such as Mt. Lemmon. The things they learn from experts might very well save their own life or the life of someone else.
One of the basic necessities of life is shelter. Every Explorer learned how to build their own shelter, even when proper resources are not available.
Being alone in the wilderness is tough enough. But with teamwork, almost anything is possible.
Camp Lawton offers everything from basic campsites to full log cabins. The Explorers experienced all of them.
The Explorers went on a 3-mile, cross-country run from the Station up to the hills in west Nogales. Physical fitness is an important part of being a Border Patrol Explorer.
