Description

Whether in the backcountry or in an urban environment, those who make it through emergency situations are those who are prepared - or really lucky. While we don't teach luck, we will equip you with the tools and knowledge necessary to see you through a survival situation. From emergency shelters to lighting fires, this hands-on workshop will give you the confidence to take care of yourself and others when everyone else is busy looking for their 4-leaf clover! This course includes a Friday-Sunday overnight camping trip. Wilderness Survival meets the pre-requisite for OED 326 - Land Travel and Camping Skills. Course Fee. Covers the intellectual and ecological Wellness dimensions.
