Wilderness Survival Training in Texas
Ask yourself this question. Could you survive outdoors in a natural disaster for one week without matches, a gun, a knife, food, and the skills needed to survive? Do you really want to rely on someone else to make life and death decisions for you and your family’s survival when things get tough?
At Texas camp, the type of knowledge, training, and certainty of action gives you the edge during any crisis. L.O.S.T-Texas survival training is much more than learning how to respond to a crisis. The skills and techniques you develop during this course are also doorways to a greater and richer experience in the world of nature.
You learn what is available in the outdoors, how to use it, prepare it, to supply the most basic of survival needs. Consider wild plants. Plants can be edible, medicinal, or utilitarian; like a common flower that will slow or stop bleeding; a root to numb a toothache; bark that tastes like root beer; and, plant fiber so strong you can make a bowstring. You will never view a flower, leaf, stalk, bush, stick, or a tree the same way again. Modern technology is great and makes our life more comfortable, but if our cell phone dies, we lose it, forget it, or a hundred other scenarios.

Hi, Mark. This is Qiong. I attended the Texas survival camp last year and had a wonderful time. When people asked me about my best time in America, I always mentioned my experience during the camp. That was probably my most exciting and memorable adventure I have ever done. ~Qiong W.
