Here is the 4th year class and instructors upon the completion of their Advanced Wilderness First Aid course. They all did a marvelous job learning skills none of us ever want to use.
We had a week of intensive study punctuated by hands on scenarios.
Yup, nothing inside, just as I suspected
Wound cleaning practice with the help of some pigs
He is not going anywhere
Practicing extracting injured people from an aircraft
Shelter building
To build a fire
Orienteering
Off to the rescue
Working on the evacuation
Almost to the extraction point
While we had a lot of fun in the woods, it was a lot of work and a scary reminder of how dangerous our work is. I wish I could show more pictures but much of the final scenario we keep secret for the next classes.
