Build confidence for summer camping live from a beautiful remote setting with this session! We will learn about building a tent or shelter, how to safely and quickly build a fire (demo only) and how to stay comfortable in the elements: Tent basics: pegs, poles, and fly Fire basics: tinder pyramid, air flow, and safety. Elemental Survival: building a make-to shelter and responding to possible inclement weather Appreciating Nature: campsite walk through and possible bird/animal sightings. I have several sites where I camp each summer that have good reliable data. Much of my summer is spent in a tent and I often camp for a week at a time. Lots of skills I have built apply to many situations and I often bring first-timers along when I camp.
Learning Goals
Students will build confidence to camp more often or camp more rugged places by learning basics.
Students will demonstrate camp readiness verbally or through hands-on skills.
Students will observe and appreciate natural settings.
