Outdoor Skills

On adventures, having basic knowledge and skills will keep you safe and make sure you are in your stretch zone. Unfortunately, we are dependent and think we don’t need these skills to be outdoors with technology. Choosing the location for camping, making a fire, finding drinking water, and orientation are skills you need for your independence or when you are in a risky situation outdoors.

●     learn how to set up the campsite; 

●     learn how to orient by using a compass with games and other activities; 

●     learn how to read the cloud for weather forecasts;
