Winter Travel & Survival
Winter Travel & Survival – Canada and France
Our Wilderness Guide Level 2 Course is focussed on Winter Travel & Survival, but we also offer this training as a Specialization Course or ‘just’ as an incredible experience.
Every year we organize a training in the French Jura and at least every two years in the Canadian Rockies.
The Jura training is a 6 days ‘intermediate’ training, the training in Canada is ‘Advanced / Specialized’, 14 days in the Rockies
During both training programs we will cover the folowing subjects
– Bushcraft & Survival / Wilderness Living Skills
– Flora, Fauna, Tracking
– Avalanche Awareness
– Orienteering, Route Finding
In Canada the end of the training wil be a 24 hours Solo or Duo skill Challenge (depending on experience, Knowledge, Skills, pre training, WFA Certification and Endurance we will chose for a solo or duo Challenge) .
