Octagon

On the river

We offer the opportunity to learn many different practical skills while experiencing a mountain climbing adventure, exploring a wild river or living on the homestead. All the skills you learn are the simple basics geared to give you the confidence to go on to the next levels of techniques. We have an extensive library of books from learning survival skills to making solar ovens to look over and read at our octagon.

Depending on what experience you choose to venture on, all the basics like reading landscape and terrain, map and orientation, animals and plants, surviving an emergency, etc. are learned. Then you decide which skills you would like to emphasize.

Outdoor/Wilderness Living, Homesteading, Wilderness Travel, Cooking Gardening, Fire Making & Tending, Shelters, Animal Care, Packing, Herds, Solar Cooking, Kayaking, Clothing, Cheese Making, Climbing, Wild Foods, Canning, XC Skiing, Carving, Composting, and Many More.
