Groups are welcome to join us on campus year-round for custom Wilderness Medicine and Wilderness Survival training. Hosting your course at our location provides immediate access to outdoor classrooms, equipment, and facilities, all designed to support hands-on learning. Programs are led by expert instructors and can be adapted to fit your group’s goals, whether that means a short half-day session or a multi-day skills course.
