IS THIS PROGRAM RIGHT FOR ME?
You need to be open to the challenges of working and training hard, be willing to live a simple life-style with minimal possessions, and be prepared to learn the new skills that will allow you to do these things comfortably, safely, and happily. You do not need to be an expert cross-country skier, canoeist or wilderness traveler, because our programs are about learning!
