About this item

"As the great outdoorsman Nessmuk (pen name of George Sears) once wrote, “We do not go to the green woods and crystal waters to rough it, we go to smooth it. We get it rough enough at home; in towns and cities.” Outdoor Fundamentals: Everything You Need to Know to Stay Safe is all about “smoothing it.” Taught by Professor Elizabeth K. Andre, a highly experienced and accredited wilderness guide and professor at Northland College, these 24 insightful lectures will give you the practical skills you need to set off for the water or the woods. Whether you pride yourself for your outdoor prowess or consider yourself an avid indoorsman or indoorswoman, you will find a wealth of practical tips and tricks for enjoying the outdoors, including: What gear you need to pack (and what you can leave at home); Setting up camp and building a fire; Staying hydrated on the trail; Decision-making and risk assessment; Navigation basics; and Wilderness first aid. Most important, Outdoor Fundamentals: Everything You Need to Know to Stay Safe is about enjoying your next (or your first) trip to the backcountry! From hiking the woods of Maine to sea-kayaking the waves of Lake Superior to exploring the wild country of Big Bend National Forest, Professor Andre fills this course with stories of adventure, harrowing tales of survival, and real-world lectures to help familiarize you with what it’s like to spend a day on a river or a night in the woods."
