The Women’s Wilderness Weekend is all about providing women with a safe place to learn and practice bushcraft skills while making new friends and gaining confidence in the wild.

With the help of 2 instructors attendees will learn about:

• bear & cougar safety

• setting up camp (tents & tarps), food prep, cooking & clean up

• pit toilets (what are they and why you need to use them!)

• fire building: confidence with matches & flint and steel and bow drill challenge

• knife and hatchet/axe use

• water purification

• shelter building (bonus points for those who sleep in it)

• wildlife tracking

• safe river crossing & river rescue

• what to do if lost in the woods
