 WILDERNESS MEDICINE

Wilderness First Responder Trainings (WFR)

We are offering a WFR certification and recertification courses in May of 2025 in conjunction with Beyond Limits Education and Wilderness Medical Associates. This is 3 year certification for outdoor professionals and those who want to know how to take care of medical emergencies in the back country.  Both of these courses are being offered as Hybrid courses, meaning that the coursework is done online before coming to the lodge.  Course time at the lodge will be hands-on skills and emergency scenarios. This type of course allows you to be away from home or work for a shorter period of time.

Hybrid WFR Course – May 12-16, 2025,  Course Cost:$850 (Requires approximately 30 hours of online coursework prior to course)
