Minimalist Trek
This is an advanced level course that will test your skills and knowledge. At the same time you will be learning new skills and techniques that will help you live with little or nothing except the knowledge in your head! We will be canoeing the Current River for a 3 day primitive trek filled with Hiking, Skills, Foraging, and much more. You may only bring the gear that will fit in a coffee can plus the clothing that you are wearing.
We will be canoeing approximately 10 miles each day and living with only what is in our minimalist kit. We will learn many "Naked into the Bush" techniques and tips to aid us in Bushcrafting with little or no gear. This is going to be a great camp with days packed full of teaching.
