When asked our students usually either want get to know the typical navigational tools and how to use them while staying on hiking trails, or how to orient themselves if lost (like an orienteering class — which this isn’t, really), or to go all-out and hike anything, anywhere, trails optional. Our Wilderness Navigation class focuses on the whole range, offering students what they want but weighing heavily on planning and not getting lost to begin with — which, as we’ve learned, is a fairly popular option. Our most recent class was taught by Redline Guides Mike Cherim and Debra McCown. Photos of the class, taken by Debra, are below.
