Understanding the wilderness helps you stay safe, harmonious, and happy in the backcountry. The bushcraft instructors at BackWoods Rescue & Survival will cover how to develop an efficient wilderness plan, pack the correct equipment and attire, and find and set up an effective campsite. Your team will also learn different methods of fire-starting, which plants are safe to eat, how to purify water, how to recognize and avoid hazards, and how to construct functional, safe shelters from natural materials.
Every adventurer needs to understand the basics of emergency wilderness communication.
