Saturday 20th March 2018
This Course is an annual event that every aspiring tramper and new member should attend. Along with our River Crossing Course (held in February) and our two Snowcraft courses held in winter, the Bushcraft Course will give you a good grounding for a future of tramping.
We will hold the course in the bush at the end of Grey's Road, Mount Pirongia. Topics covered include map-reading, navigation, emergency shelters, basic first aid and basic river crossing principles. Our leaders have a wealth of experience in tramping and they are keen to pass on some of their experience to you. As the Mountain Safety Council no longer runs such courses, mountain clubs around the country have taken over this role. You will need to have tramping gear suitable for a day trip, along with lunch. This will be an easy day physically but will be more demanding mentally as the day will contain plenty to think about.
