Survival Instincts

Our premier course offering of Survival Instincts teaches the core concepts of fire craft, shelter building and water purification. Professional instructors will teach students the knowledge necessary to live through an unexpected short term emergency survival scenario. At New River Survival & Bushcraft, we provide students with a basic kit for use during the trip while practicing skills within a fun and energetic teach-emulate environment. Beyond the core concepts, the student can expect to touch on other subjects such as survival mindset and theory, first aid, navigation, rescue signaling and knife safety.
