About the Event

The Wilderness Survival 201 Course is the second course in the progressionary Woodsrunner System of skills, safety, and survival. During the Survival 101 Course, students were taught how to prepare for, and quickly take care of the immediate crisis situation.

Gear & tools break. Supplies run out. Use knowledge & skills to do more with less.

This is an intermediate survival course. You will learn and apply the skills necessary to survive in the wilderness for a longer term, and to prevent future crises; by focusing more on improvisation techniques, utilizing natural resources, relying less on equipment, and building upon the foundational skills learned in the 101 course.
