Our multi-day classes are a series of survival courses designed to teach every survival skill you need in wilderness survival. We focus primarily on primitive skills taught with a combination of demonstration and hands-on, by a full-time wilderness survival instructor(s). The survival courses are designed to introduce and give you practice with the survival skills to allow you to thrive in the wilderness with only a knife.
The courses are structured into either one Master Course (16 consecutive days) or 3 courses ranging from basic to advanced in difficulty. The basic course (Essential Wilderness Survival) is two days usually over a weekend, the intermediate course (Applied Wilderness Survival) is four days, and the advanced course (Advanced Wilderness Survival) is five days. Additionally there is a NOLS Wilderness First Aid two-day course, one day of plant identification, and two days of you putting your skills to the test.
