Spend a week exploring the natural world and learning outdoor survival skills with Wilderness Awareness School?s most experienced instructors.



Classroom instruction will be paired with mentored dirt time in the field where we take theory into practice tracking, birding, studying plants, and exploring the natural world. It?s a wonderful mix of nature awareness, outdoor survival skills and wilderness survival skills training.



A full day will be spent exploring each of the following areas...



Field Observation Refine your physical observation skillsand learn to integrate intuitive awareness into your study of nature. Chris Laliberte weaves stories, current research on human perception and brainpatterning in with concrete practices for learning to see and hear more innature, while expanding both your awareness and ability to retain new learning!



Wildlife Tracking Practice track and sign location, identification, interpretation, aging, ecological tracking, and trailing. A mix of technical skills training and dirt time provides the opportunity to both build skills and work through challenging mysteries with a mentor looking over your shoulder to guide you. Jenn Wolfe guides your study for the day.



Edible and Medicinal Plants Develop your identification skills and learn touse plants for food and medicine. Collection and processing techniques arecovered. John Gallagher guides you down the path towards a deeper relationship with wild plants.



Wilderness Survival & Outdoor Living Skills A skilled naturalist must be comfortable traveling and living in the natural world. Learn shelter construction, fire making, crafts for primitive outdoorliving and other wilderness survival training basics with Dan Corcoran.



Bird Language Interpretation As the master tracker Olaus Murie wrote "One should always listen to the warnings of the birds." Learn to recognize the different calls and alarms of the birds and a whole new world of awareness opens up to you. A day in the field with Alexia Stevens will transform yourawareness of what?s going on in the forest around you.



Although class will be held in the beautiful forests of the Pacific Northwest, you will leave with a set of invaluable core routines you can take anywhere. This class covers indispensable skills for naturalists!
