Camp Augusta
Located in Nevada City, CA
+1 for camp augusta where my (low support needs) autistic, ADD + anxiety nature loving 14 year old daughter has gone for many years - it's her happy place.
Take a look at Camp Augusta. They have a really great approach and better/more training than usual camp counselors. Our gifted group of 2E kids frequented the family camp many years in a row when my kids were younger. Highly recommend. https://campaugusta.org
www.campaugusta.org MIGHT still have a few spots. They are one of the few camps that fills 100% every year. It is incredible - partially because they train the counselors! At many summer camps the staff arrives on Friday and the kids on Saturday. At Camp Augusta, the staff has week of training clear communication and challenge by choice. It is truly lovely.

Re: Seeking outdoor camp for 14-15 year old boys
My 2 boys, now ages 12 and 15, have attended Camp Augusta for several years and both like it. It is a sleepaway camp in the Sierra foothills and all the activities you mentioned, and more, are available. However, it's not cheap and tends to fill up quickly.
