There’s still room in this weekend’s Wilderness First Aid course at the Green Mountain Club! This certification course is perfect if:
• You want to learn how to be safer on your next hike, paddle, ski trip, or run in the woods.
• You lead trips in the backcountry
• You want to be more competitive for outdoor job opportunities
You’ll learn splinting techniques, how backcountry rescues work, how to identify dangerous conditions (such as hypothermia) before they become truly life-threatening, and so much more. You can also take this course to recertify your WFR and become CPR certified. Call the GMC Visitor Center at (802) 244-7037 for more details or to sign up!
