Ever wonder what to do if you are lost? In this engaging, hands-on program, students learn about lost-proofing (how not to get lost), shelter building, using natural materials to keep warm, edible wild, cordage and other survival skills. This program teaches an important set of outdoor skills as well as helping students to feel more comfortable in the woods. In the winter, we will focus on simple skills to help students stay warm by building a debris hut or a quinzhee.
