About the Outdoor Living Wilderness Survival and Bushcraft Skills for Families
In the Outdoor Living Wilderness Survival and Bushcraft Skills for Families private program, your family will learn about wilderness survival and bushcraft skills. Your family will learn how to best prepare for unexpected situations and how to make the most of the natural resources you would encounter in the wilderness. Together, your family will be introduced to essential bushcraft skills and will be able to practice them. The program covers knowledge about trip planning, risk assessment, survival priorities, safe techniques for knife, axe, saw and shovel use, shelter construction strategies, fire preparation, navigation basics and advice on how to build a family wilderness survival kit. Making use of nature’s resources as harmlessly as possible is our priority. Thus, during our programs, not a single tree is damaged. The Outdoor Living Wilderness Survival and Bushcraft Skills for Families program illustrates how to use natural materials without disturbing nature at the same time.
