Primitive Survival Skills Class

Would you like to feel more confident, comfortable, safe and secure when participating in outdoor activities? Would you like to feel that Nature is your provider and not your adversary? Do you love learning new skills? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, then you should come and take a kayak/primitive skills tour with us at beautiful North Lake Tahoe.

We will kayak to a beautiful location, where you will learn to make fire using nothing more than what Nature provides. Have you ever asked yourself what you would do if your clothing, matches and lighter got wet and you were miles (and hours) from civilization? Hours away from dry clothing, shelter and warmth? Keep in mind, most cases of hypothermia occur at temperatures above 50 degrees. It’s moisture and wind that rob your body of heat. With the knowledge and skills you
will gain through this kayak tour / primitive skills class, you can be sure you won’t have to worry about unforeseen calamities ruining your trip or putting your life in danger.

This is an outdoor adventure that is as much fun as it is educational. It is great for everyone from children to senior citizens. You will get to enjoy Lake Tahoe in an eco-friendly, low impact manner, while filling your lungs with the clean air of the high Sierra and feeding your soul with some of the most stunning scenery in the world. We look forward to seeing you and sharing this tremendous adventure with you.
