Have you recently taken an interest in hiking? Are you a hiker who wants to venture further into the back country or on longer trips? Have you been held back by fear, or by the concerns of well-meaning partners?  Thoughts like, “Is it safe? What if something bad happens??”  If so, then this virtual class is for you!

Many new hikers have fears, and most of these fears are unfounded. In this class, you will learn about the most common injuries and incidents that occur on the trails and while hiking in the back country. You will learn what the real hazards are and how to avoid them AND what to do if something does happen! You will learn what the 10 Essentials are that every hiker should carry in their pack and how to use them… with a focus on prevention so that you won’t need to break out those 10 Essentials.

This class is designed to put your mind at ease, teach you skills to prevent injuries, and take care of them if something does happen. This class will give you the knowledge to bring home a great story to tell instead of a calamity!
