Thread: 10 days in the desert - AWESOME

    10 days in the desert - AWESOME

    Just got back from 10 days in the desert near Death Valley. Just awesome.

    Of course things like hand-drill are much easier in the dryness!

    Finding water, creating and managing water. Sun protection shelters. Insulated shelters for the sun and the cold. Firemaking. Wild food. Small-game hunting. Climbing. Natural navigation. Sand-storm and flash flood survival.

    Oh yes...and Hot Springs - HOT MUD!

    Desert starry nights.

    Many many great experiences.

    Yeah. Deep nature immersion and awareness training.

    Situational awareness. Perception training. Desert Qigong. Desert Survival/Bushcraft.

    Our clients loved it...

    Bloody hell snow and cold one minute then roasting desert the next. Yes you are a wild girl of major extremes.
    If only I was younger and fitter by about 100% ha ha would have loved the extremes.
