Due to the requirements needed to operate for Covid-19 protocols and the remote locale of DHASB we will not be able to operate DHASB for Summer 2021. We look forward to our return in 2022.
The Denali High Adventure Scout Base (DHASB) is the newest camp property of the Great Alaska Council. This 2,000 acre camp is located at mile 133 on the Parks Highway week-long resident camping to Scouts from the Great Alaska Council and other visiting Councils. It is one of three resident camps operated by the Council.
DHASB is a world class destination for Scouts and visitors to experience Alaska’s unique, vast, and remote wilderness. We educate all campers through a variety of exhilerating year-round programs in outdoor ethics, high adventure, bear safety and environmental stewardship. Scouts will gain a greater understanding and appreciation of Scouting and its values using the outdoor and life skills they develop in the natural wonder of the Denali High Adventure Scout Base.
There are no Merit Badges offered at DHASB. Many of the activities done during their week at camp will count towards Merit Badges, they would contact a Merit Badge Counselor upon their return to complete the badge, the focus of DHASB is to experience as much as the Alaskan Outdoors has to offered.
