Outdoor Survival Skills  

April 26-28 

class begins Friday evening, April 26

Outdoor Survival is intended as a hands-on course focusing on the basic skills necessary to help cope with a short-term survival situation and, more importantly, the strategies necessary to avoid one in the first place. Using lecture, examinations of real-life survivors, and experiential training in the field, students will gain first-hand knowledge of how to make shelter, locate water, signal for help, light a fire in wet weather, and be prepared for treks into the wilderness. The first class is held on campus. The remaining two days are held in the field.
