Testimonials:
"The Wilderness survival course gave me tools to use in a
survival situation, but also provided a knowledge base to help me look
at the world around me in a new, more resourceful way. Thank you very
much!"
-Lindsay P.
"The instructors are knowledgeable and experienced. Their
stories make the course much better than trying to learn from books or
the internet."
-Andy S.
"Alderleaf's instructors are a wonderful resource. We're so
fortunate to have them in our area. I was able to create the tools for
making fire, purifying water, even making a survival shelter. I came
here thinking I would see experts demonstrate advanced skills in wild
crafting. I never thought I personally would experience the kind of
success I did; making fire for the first time is awe inspiring. Thank
you!"
- Wilderness Survival Course Participant
"A wide-ranging sampler of survival and primitive living skills. Exposed me to lots of ideas to practice on my own and explore. Nothing like instant feedback of real instructors over read a book."
-Alfred S.
"This was a truly profound experience. I learned a ton about survival and myself in the process."
-Mallory R.
"The survival intensive was a life changing experience. I will never see, hear, or move through the wilderness the same way again!"
-Eric W.
