Whether you are in the backcountry, a road trip or an urban setting, a rapidly changing environment is something that should be expected and planned for. With the right gear and mindset, we have the ability to sustain ourselves, our family and friends.
In this 4-hour MasterClass, we will cover the 10 essential items that would be difficult to reproduce in the wild as well as the additional supportive tools needed to keep with you and to have in your pack at all times whether it’s a day hike, a road trip or a multi-day adventure in the backcountry. We will be creating your perfect adventure/survival bag and the applications provided in this course will become the foundation to the emergency kit that you keep in your vehicle, at work or for home. We will create an emergency tarp shelter using some of the best go-to knots as well as create emergency tinder for starting fires.
Better understand self-sufficiency when faced with a situation where you must rely on yourself and the items at hand to successfully care for your own needs and potentially the needs of others. Exploring the outdoors is one of the best ways we can connect with ourselves and the natural world. The Masterclass will give you the foundational knowledge to prepare and recreate responsibly so you can focus on the joy of the adventure. Increase your adaptability and confidence and always be prepared.
