Spend time OUTSIDE learning the life-maintaining skills you need to enjoy, survive and thrive in the wild
The knowledge and skills required to enjoy and survive the outdoors are useful for more than just a weekend camping or day hiking trip. This course is designed to give you the knowledge to prepare to enjoy the outdoors and what to do when things go sideways and to get home safely or help others do the same.
Basic Course: two nights, two days camp in place small group camping no Rucking. This class is designed to experience the outdoors and learn and practice basic skills (required equipment list PDF HERE)
Intermediate Course: Growing up n the skills learned in the basic course, this is a three-night, four-day RUCKING class that will cover about 10 miles of uneven terrain but at a pace that most can easily accomplish. If you have not taken the basic course, that's fine but keep in mind that you MUST have good basic skills to partake in and enjoy this course safely. This course is also offered as a winter survival experience. (required equipment list PDF HERE)
