1. You’ll learn pro backpacking tips and techniques from someone who introduces hundreds of people to backpacking each year. We’ll cover: the right backpacking gear (everything from boots to tents) and how to pack it; trip-planning; basic navigation; campsite selection; food preparation; layering; backcountry hygiene (including pooping in the woods); plus required safety information and trail etiquette.

How This Course Works
You can take this course at your own pace. You’ll learn through a variety of interactive formats, including video instruction, photo descriptions, and more. Each lesson builds on the last, and, while we’ve designed the course to be 10 weeks long, you can take it as quickly or slowly as you want. Plus, once you purchase the course, the lessons are yours forever.
