A Day in the Program
Each day we practice awareness skills in tracking, stealth and bird language and calls. We also spend time at local Archery Ranges training with bows and arrows. Through out journeys we develop the basics of many bushcraft skills such as fire by friction, shelter building and nature tools.
Whenever we introduce a skill we refine and test it with course challenges. Students work in a team to make decisions, complete group projects and overcome obstacles. These team skills are honed and put to the test throughout the camp.
