If you hesitated, you need wilderness first aid training.

Is there a voice that starts whispering when you lose cell signal, when the sun sets, or when you're a full day from civilization? A voice that whispers…
“What if something goes wrong? What if I can’t handle it? Maybe we should go back…”
That anxious voice isn't about fitness, navigation, or gear. It's about medical confidence. And you can gain it in two days.
This isn't death-by-PowerPoint. Ali and Mike throw realistic scenarios at you—messy, urgent, stressful—until the patient assessment system becomes second nature. You'll drill the same system used by wilderness medical professionals worldwide, based on real backcountry incidents from over a decade in the field.

In 16 hours (2 days) you'll learn:
→ Patient assessment that works when you're stressed
→ Trauma management - controlling bleeding, treating wounds, stabilizing injuries
→ When to evacuate vs. when to stay put
→ Decision-making under pressure
→ Improvising solutions with the gear you have
→ Medical emergencies- allergic reactions, cardiac events, diabetic issues in the field
→ Managing your environment- preventing and treating hypothermia, heat illness, lightning strikes, etc.

Ali has been a Wilderness First Responder since 2010, managing medical situations everywhere from the Hajar Mountains to remote trails across three continents. Mike's a Tactical Paramedic with a career in emergency response. You'll train on scenarios pulled from their actual backcountry experiences—the messy, complicated situations where the textbook answer isn't obvious. They don't just teach this stuff—they've lived it.

Practice makes permanent. You'll drill until you can’t get it wrong, and your brain reaches for training before panic has a chance to set in.
You'll leave certified through ECSI, but more importantly, you'll leave confident. The kind of confidence that lets you venture deeper, stay longer, and know you’ll respond instead of panic, no matter what happens.
The difference between being someone who dreams about big adventures and someone who actually goes on them is knowing you can handle it.
Let's make sure you can. Grab your spot. →
