Program content edit

Initially developed for Philmont Training Center (PTC) at Rayado Ridge Leadership Camp in Cimarron, New Mexico, the program has been offered regionally and at other high adventure bases. NAYLE is an element of the Youth Leadership Training Continuum.

NAYLE expands upon the team-building and ethical decision-making skills learned in National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) , which is a pre-requisite for NAYLE. NAYLE uses the Philmont Ranger training and advanced search-and-rescue training to teach leadership, teamwork, and the lessons of selfless service. NAYLE is included in the overall leadership training program.

NAYLE replaces the National Youth Leader Instructor Camp (NYLIC), which itself replaced the previous National Junior Leader Instructor Camp (NJLIC).[2] Unlike NYLIC, NAYLE is not intended to specifically train youth staff for local NYLT courses.

As of 2018, challenging program is based at two of the four Boy Scout High Adventure bases:[3]
