This will be an entirely outdoor program in wilderness skills, tracking, observation, way finding, meeting your needs, staying safe, and enjoying the subtleties of the winter landscape. If you want to become more observant, resourceful, at home, or just have a day of fun in the cold and snow, this will be a great time of getting immersed in winter. We will make discoveries, cook on the fire, hike deep into the woods and get lost (just a little) in this experience. Participants will need to be able to hike hills in snow much of the day, and have insulated boots, and good layering on themselves.
