The troop will be traveling to New Mexico on a 100-mile hiking and camping trip. The big question when getting ready for this kind of an event is, ” WHAT IF?” No one expects anything to happen to them. The Wilderness Class, which teaches how and what to do "WHEN HELP IS DELAYED", is for hikers, campers, and hunters. For information on this class, contact us.
