Survival 101

Forget what you see on television and come learn the real skills to survive a wilderness emergency. Combining decades of search and rescue experience, hands on training, and realistic scenarios, this course will prepare you and your family for life’s adventures.

Trail Safe

The woods are one of the safest places to hang out, but if you have concerns about two or four legged predators in the woods, then this is your course. We’ll cover the skills to handle all these potential threats, along with six, eight, and legless critters.

Land Navigation

Getting lost is a major contributor to wilderness emergencies and land navigation skills are critical to safe wilderness travel. Not your typical tabletop map and compass course, we spend the day navigating off trail on our challenging mountain navigation course.

Wilderness First Aid

Injury is the leading cause of wilderness emergencies. Spend two days with our Search & Rescue team medics and learn the skills to confidently handle those emergencies. This course is taught based upon the Emergency Safety Care Institute curriculum.

Survival 201

This is a test. I repeat, this is a test.

Take your training to the next level by challenging your mind, body, and spirit. Three days of scenario based training combined with hands on instruction, will help push your mindset, skills, and gear to the next level.
