- **Event Description**: Wilderness First Aid (WFA) is our foundational two-day course designed for anyone who spends time outside—hikers, parents, camp staff, Scout leaders, new guides, and outdoor enthusiasts of all levels. This hands-on class teaches you how to recognize, assess, and manage common injuries and illnesses when professional help may be delayed. You’ll learn practical skills, clear decision-making, and the confidence to respond effectively in low-resource or remote environments.

What You’ll Learn

In this engaging, scenario-based course, you’ll build competence in:

Performing a structured patient assessment

Recognizing life-threatening conditions and prioritizing care

Managing musculoskeletal injuries (sprains, strains, fractures)

Treating wounds, burns, blisters, and bleeding

Identifying and responding to environmental illnesses (heat, cold, altitude, stings, bites)

Making evacuation decisions and communicating with rescue personnel

Basic backcountry medical kit setup and improvisation techniques

WFA emphasizes realistic practice, teamwork, and field decision-making so you leave with skills you can actually use.

Who This Course Is For

WFA is ideal for:

Outdoor beginners wanting to build confidence

Parents and families who hike, camp, or travel

Guides, camp staff, teachers, and youth leaders

Anyone wanting a practical introduction to wilderness medicine

Individuals seeking a prerequisite for more advanced training

No previous medical experience is required.

Course Format

This is a 16-hour, in-person course taught over two days. Instruction combines short lectures, discussions, skills labs, and realistic outdoor scenarios. Students will be active participants—expect to practice patient assessments, splints, bandaging, and decision-making in a hands-on setting.

100% attendance is required for certification.

Graduates receive a Wilderness First Aid Certification valid for three years, along with CPR instruction as part of the course curriculum (varies slightly by course location).
