WILDERNESS MEDICINE
Complete an Advanced Wilderness Life Support Course, which will cover topics such as Altitude Illnesses, Hyper- and Hypothermia, Toxicology, Envenomations, general trauma, and more, through lectures, skills sessions, and simulation. Focus on medical decision-making that can be executed early in disease or injury processes, in austere environments, with a focus on acute stabilization and evacuation to appropriate medical care. Learn foundational backcountry skills such as land navigation; fire and stove operation; water and waste management; and Leave-No-Trace principles. Technical workshops and field experiences give participants the opportunity to learn from experienced kayakers and climbers from the area, to apply backcountry skills on a self-supported backpacking trip, and to continue exploring wilderness medicine through interactive sessions.
