Backcountry Travel

Proper preparation increases your chances of survival. We teach the 4 essential elements needed for the best chance of a positive outcome: ability (the skills you need know), knowledge (putting the skills into practice), the will to survive (this one is much more important than you might think), and, of course, a little bit of luck. These courses are packed with information about what gear to pack, what foods to eat, how much to drink for hydration, what to wear, how to plan your route, how to navigate, signal and develop an emergency plan of action.
