The Ridge Runner class is designed for trail runners, mountain bikers, hunters, or anyone that spends time in the woods! The skills we teach can be used by anyone in a wilderness survival situation. All gear is provided for successful completion of the class. Click the Ridge Runner button for more info.

The CoreFour class will cover the basics of fire, shelter, food and water. In this two day class everything you need for the class (except meals & camping gear) will be provided, but feel free to bring your own fixed blade knife for use in the class. The class will focus on carrying the right gear with you whenever you head into the woods and how to use it. The goal is not to teach you to go into the woods with nothing and survive, but rather why you don't go into the woods with nothing if you want to survive! The Navigator basic navigation class is also part of the CoreFour curriculum. Click the CoreFour button for more info.

The Intro to BackPacking class is a one day class for anyone that has ever wanted to leave the campsite behind and do some "wild" camping! We'll look at backpacking gear, shelter options, and even cover some basic survival skills, like fire making. We"ll have lots of different gear on hand for you to see up close and checkout before deciding what you might want to carry. Click the Intro to BackPacking button for more info.

The Bushwacker class is a two day and one night backpacking trip. We'll hike on an established trail, but head off-trail to camp. After we find a campsite, we'll cover fire, water, navigation, and whatever else comes up. This will not be a survival class but more of an intro to backpacking. We'll also meet two weeks prior to the class to go over gear and any questions you might have. This is not mandatory, but highly recommended. Click the BushWacker button for more info.

The DayHiker class will focus on carrying the right gear with you whenever you head into the woods and how to use it. The goal of this one day class is to teach you what to carry and how to use it when you are not planning to spend the night in the woods. If you are prepared for the unexpected, nothing is ever unexpected! Click the DayHiker button for more info.

The Navigator class is a basic navigation class. In this four hour class we'll go over the parts of your compass, basic map reading, finding your way using a compass and some helpful tips and tricks for finding your way out of the woods. This is NOT an in-depth navigation course. This is only a beginner level class, that will hopefully help you find your way back if lost in the woods. The Navigator class is also part of the two day CoreFour class. Click the Navigator button for more info.

The Family Day class is an oppurtunity for you to bring a child to a "survival" class that is specifically designed for them!
They’ll learn about fire, shelter, camping/hiking gear, campfire cooking, and how to enjoy the outdoors! All in a safe and fun environment!
