Description
Good Day everyone;
Rick and Craig would like to add a twist on the Wilderness Survival 101 class that many students have asked for. Training on the usual topics while taking winter situations into account, along with snowshoeing, sled selection/use, and other concerns related to winter scenarios.
Wilderness Survival class: this class covers multiple fire lighting techniques, shelter building, campsite selection, clothing considerations, water purification, emergencies, essential carry items, keeping your sense of direction and more. If you spend time in remote backcountry areas or would like to gain additional confidence and skills to handle an unexpected stay in the woods, then this class is designed specifically for you.
Learning syllabus includes:
- Assemble the ultimate day pack (don’t leave home without it!)
- Selecting the perfect campsite
