Part of our fleet heads for the marina on the last day of camp in 2005 - we have 23 pontoon boats, 30 sailboats, and 6 wakeboard & ski boats.

Our battery of howitzers fires during a battle reenactment at the US Cavalry Outpost.

Swimming in the open water of Lake Bridgeport - a bonus for every crew.

We added a second Blob to our Water Park dock in summer 2004.

Ambushed! Now drive 'em back Texas Rangers!

Preparing to take off on an Ultimate Tubing War - the winner is the last person on the tubes.

A Chisholm Trail crew arrives at the Sailing Base for an afternoon of sailing or windsurfing.
Chisholm Trail is a unique and unforgettable high adventure for older youth and adults. You get a pontoon boat for a week to travel to the high adventure and watersports bases on our 19 miles of Lake Bridgeport shoreline! It’s a backpacking program, but you’ll use boats instead of boots. You’ll see rugged and beautiful parts of our camp that even Longhorn troops rarely see!

At Chisholm Trail you spend every afternoon at a watersports base and the rest of each day and the following morning at a high adventure outpost. Outposts are U.S. Cavalry, Texas Rangers, Comanche Village, Climbing, Covert Ops, Sporting Clays, Sport Orienteering, Texas Cowboy Cooking, COPE, and Scottish Highland Games. Our staff will do their best to give your crew an outstanding high adventure experience!

Troops and Crews from over 40 states, England and Scotland, have come to Chisholm Trail. We are 70 miles from DFW airport. Pontoon boats, gas, food, and ice are included. Chisholm Trail is quite a deal: pontoon boats rentals private marinas on North Texas lakes costs $45 - $60 per hour, and that doesn’t include gas.
