River Crossing Essentials (One Day)
About
This one-day course gives trampers, hunters, and backcountry explorers the skills and confidence to assess rivers and decide when and when not to cross. You’ll learn how to identify river hazards, understand flow and terrain features, and apply sound decision-making to manage risk. Through hands-on practice, you’ll develop safe crossing techniques, learn how to choose entry and exit points, use poles for support, and back out when conditions change. The course also covers recovery swims, pack floating, and basic rescue methods including how to deal with cold injuries.Dates
