This page is to list recommended items you might need for our wilderness survival courses. Each course has different requirements but this list will give you the most common items you should bring to class. Almost none of the items are absolutely necessary if you don’t have them and the ones that are can usually be provided by the school if you don’t have even the most basic items. We want to make sure you can attend whether you only have a few items or could outfit an expedition! Email us if you have any questions!
