Today we met with all missionaries and leadership at "the Trek Center". This great log building serves as a training center, orientations for school groups and trekkers, and for Sunday services during the summer months. It's the most unique church building we've ever met in! There's a buffalo skin on the wall, signs reminding everyone of an urgent need in this dry, windy climate to drink lots of water, photos of pioneers, and flat screen tv's for presentations...we received lots of instruction and then headed out on site to tour the "homestead".
We learned that there were 27,000 youth trekkers here during summer 2011 and about 20,000 other visitors. The campgrounds and trails here facilitate these trekkers, and the other sites are of great interest to visitors.
