Join us for an intro to outdoor skills workshop. These courses will mainly be run as custom/private events so this is your chance to jump into a scheduled workshop. These sessions are for everyone! Feeling safe, having fun, learning new things, you don’t need to be a survivalist to want to gain some sweet new outdoors skills! From backcountry camping, hunting, survival, recreational outings…..there is something for everyone to gain from attending these workshops.

This specific workshop will focus on two components – 

• Fire building. This portion includes a walk to our site in which we will talk about natural tinder options, different tree species, gathering techies etc. Once we get to the fire making location we will go over proper site selection, how to build a fire & how to use a fire steel & flint. Everyone will get hands on with collecting their fire building components, building the fire and using a flint.
• Bear awareness. Since it is the time of year when bears are waking up we thought this would be a useful addition to this workshop. We will go over looking for bear signs, bear behaviour, how to say safe in the backcountry & everyone will get to practice deploying a bear spray.

This workshop be be roughly three hours in length & located within Prince George. Exact location and gear list will be emailed to everyone attending.
