But let’s save the philosophy for nightfall and make the most of the daylight we do have. After all\, even on the shortest day of the year\, there’s still photosynthesis to get on with\, food to scrounge up\, shelter to seek\, and (for us humans) a quiet continuity of wintertime life to get out there and find. \nThis program will take place entirely outdoors. Please dress for the weather. Participants will travel about 2 miles on paved\, gravel\, and dirt surfaces. \nMeet in front of the Farm Barn Orientation Center for check-in. We recommend arriving 10-15 minutes before the start of class. We cannot accommodate late arrivals and the class will depart on time. \n\n\nProgram Guidelines\nRegistration is required.

This is the class fir yew!\n\n\nWhen the bare branches of winter start to get you down\, turn to the conifers for a breath of fresh\, pine-scented air. More ancient and more steadfast than the deciduous divas of autumn\, our native coniferous trees like red cedar and black spruce deserve a spotlight too. On this walk\, beginners to tree ID and ecology will get acquainted with several common species\, learn what to look for to tell a spruce from a cedar or a hemlock from a pine\, and discuss the fascinating ecology and evolutionary history that sets these trees apart. \nThis program will take place entirely outdoors. Please dress for the weather. Participants will travel about 2 miles on paved\, gravel\, and dirt surfaces. \nMeet in front of the Farm Barn Orientation Center for check-in.

Nepal? Ghana? The incredible diversity of color and form in this global flower family is ours to explore\, and the evolutionary stories hidden there are ours to read—if we know how. Are their unique\, co-evolved entanglements with pollinator\, fungus\, and land what give rise to orchids’ reputation as fragile and fickle plants\, or is this what simply what happens whenever a species is unmoored from its native habitat? \nThis program is appropriate for adults and will take place partially outdoors.

Practical hands-on exercises and scenarios will improve retention and confidence. Developed for the public from years of teaching this course to Search & Rescue professionals\, students now benefit by learning the most current practices for patient assessment\, trauma interventions like splinting and bleeding control\, environmental emergencies like venomous snakebites and bee stings\, medical emergencies like strokes and chest pain\, illnesses\, and more. These skills not only apply just to hiking\, but anytime we’re in the outdoors. We welcome students from all outdoor pursuits – scout leaders\, quad riders\, beachgoers\, mountain bikers\, fishermen\, adventure racers\, and even those who just enjoy relaxing at the family BBQ. Having the knowledge\, skills\, and confidence to step up and help in a time of need is invaluable. \nUpon completion\, students will receive a 2-year ASHI WFA certification\, which is accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA) and accepted by Scouts BSA and GSUSA. \nFeatured Topics\n\nPatient assessment\nTrauma interventions – Bleeding control\, splinting\, wound care\, etc…\nMedical interventions – Stroke\, diabetes\, allergies\, breathing difficulty\, etc…\nEnvironmental emergencies – Heat\, cold\, bites & stings\, plants\, weather\, etc…\nBackcountry first aid kit contents\n\nSchedule\nDecember 10 from 6:00PM-10:00PM \nDecember 12 from 6:00PM-10:00PM \nDecember 14 from 9:00AM-5:00PM \n\n\nAbout the Instructors\nJoe Galvan is a lifelong hiker and in his element when sharing outdoor experiences\, mentoring others\, and connecting with the outdoor-minded in our community.
