Fieldcraft 201
Instructed by Jon Turner — a USMC veteran from Vermont — this 3-part fieldcraft survival series will provide methods to cover basic needs of survival in the wilderness — Shelter, Water, Fire, Food and Tools — by using modern and primitive resources.
Each class will highlight multiple approaches to meet these basic needs and there will be several opportunities to test gear in the field. The 201 course will provide you with a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of wilderness survival and the tools and techniques you'll need to survive, and teach you how to do more with less. Our corresponding Fieldcraft 301 course in December will provide you with an opportunity to safely test everything you've learned in the 101 and 201 courses while in the field.
Another Summit is able to provide all the necessary gear for participants who need it.
