The weather at the end of May will determine the location of this trip. All of the chosen locations are in Utah. (If there is a lot of snow then the location will most likely be in Southern Utah.)
We will all meet together on Monday morning and the counselors will help us get to know each other! The wilderness survival guide will then give a safety orientation and make sure every person has sufficient gear for the trip. After we are all ready we will leave civilization behind and enter the wilderness!
Spiritual Agenda: After this trip you will have more confidence in yourself, others and God. Each morning, the return missionary counselors will engage the group in a spiritual discussion. After the discussion you will have an hour of scripture study/ponder/journal time! One of the nights you will have the opportunity to build your own shelter away from the group and spend a night solo underneath the brightest starts you will ever see, just you and God! Each night there will be a fireside by an actual fire. (We will be learning how to make that fire with sticks!)
Wilderness Survival Agenda: Each day you will learn a new skill that will help you understand how to survive in the wilderness. Day 1 we will learn how to gather/purify water and set up shelters. Day 2 we will focus on fire making and traps and snares. Day 3-5 we will be refining our wilderness skills learned in the first two days and also working on primitive weapons, flint knapping, primitive fishing, food gathering, identifying edible plants, rope making, primitive glues, animal tracking, backpack building and safe hiking.
At the end of the week your relationship with God will be strengthened, lifelong friendships will be made, and your ability to survive in the wilderness will have increased 100 fold! Join us in this once in a lifetime trip!
