General Wilderness Survival
Wilderness survival is a must for all advanced hikers and backpackers. Some prefer to stay out for a few days, while others will go on long extended backpacking trips. Either way, it is extremely important to know wilderness survival past more than a day hike. And even then, such knowledge is valuable and lifesaving in the event of being stranded. We’ll focus on a few different aspects of wilderness survival in this series, and touch on the important points that you should focus on.
If you feel like you need on-hand experience with wilderness survival, I would definitely suggest taking a course with your local sportsman’s club or outdoor recreation center/trainer. The information gained is extremely precious when in a survival situation, and you can learn a lot from even a short introductory course. Stay tuned for more!
