Have you ever wanted to get a Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certification? This 5-day training course teaches you how to handle the most common injuries and acute health problems that occur in the backcountry or on outdoor adventure trips including hiking, climbing, skiing, backpacking, rafting, canoeing, canyoneering, and mountain climbing.

The WFR is usually required for anyone who wants to be a climbing guide, backpacking guide, ski patroller, or member of a search and rescue (SAR) team. It's far more extensive than the Wilderness First Aid (WFA) certification--I should know as I did hold a WFA cert (now expired) which only required 2 days of hands-on training. The WFR requires 72 hours of training, which would normally mean 9 days at 8 hours/day.

Capitol Cities CPR is offering a hybrid WFR training course that follows NOLS WFR training guidelines. It involves 3 days of online coursework followed by 5 days of hands-on training, This class will be held May 28-June 1 (Tuesday-Saturday) in Chico, CA.

The cost is $925 which is competitive with other WFR training classes.
