If you spend enough time in the outdoors, stuff happens! Everything from minor injuries to life-threatening emergencies can, and do, happen to people when they are hiking, camping, paddling, and biking. Knowing how to handle these types of situations may help save you or a loved one in the future!

This class is a quick overview of wilderness first aid and covers the basics of making sure you can handle whatever happens in the wild.

Topics Include:

• Putting together a well-stocked first aid kit
• Learning to properly use for all the items in your first aid kit
• Basic first aid skills like dressing a wound, treating a burn or bite, or how to set an injured limb.

Although the instructor is certified to teach advanced first aid classes, this class is NOT a certification-level course.
