There is no time like the present to explore, learn, and build self-sufficiency in basic and advanced outdoor survival skills. Lifesong adventures urges everyone interested in developing their survival skills and wilderness outdoor knowledge to take advantage of this unequaled opportunity to learn from a master survivalist and outdoor expert in a one-on-one adventure.
Each course is limited to a maximum of ten (10) participants, which gives each student a dramatically increased learning and skill level.
Fire making courses will include both basic and advanced techniques. One match fire, flint and steel, bow-drill, hand drill friction fire, natural tinder, making cordage and string with plant fibers.
“Carrying a lighter to make fire in an emergency is smart thinking. But, unless you know how to make a fire from scratch the possibility is very real that the only guarantee a lighter will provide you with is a sore thumb and a miserable cold night out.” ~Mark Wienert
