The Nutcracker Flight was an outdoor program started around 1970. The program was started by Riverside County Council Camping Chair Jack Nelson.
It involved classroom instruction, with a final trip to the Sierra Nevada for a long weekend of field demonstrations.
The program may have been used as a prototype for Region 12 and Western Region Area 4 “High Adventure” activities.
