I participated in this camp, aeons ago. It helped start my aviation career, but like most participants I was infatuated with aviation even before. Our flight induction was done in a twin, a P68. Whether that's any safer than a SEP I doubt, it just doubles the probability of an engine failure, which in the alpine, high altitude environment would perhaps raise the odds of a walk away outcome less so than the increased probability of it taking place...
