Hybrid blended version where students independently complete online learning before class and then spend the entire class doing in-person skills.​

What if you were on a hike, or even at the grocery store or mall, and suddenly the person walking towards you passes out, crashing to the ground. You check, no pulse. CPR. Would you go right into action? Would you be frozen, a deer in the headlights, wishing you could help? Don't put it off, learn CPR now.

In addition to learning CPR itself, we’ll also learn the different roles to be filled and the tasks you might not think about that are needed. How do you engage bystanders to assist you? How will you move the person if in a tight space or to where EMTs can take over? We’ll learn about other equipment needed and where it might be located, overall situational awareness, and scene safety. It all comes together so we can be as efficient as possible and ensure the patient is receiving the best possible care. The more people out there who can jump in to help in such dire circumstances the better. Get certified and stay current. Don’t put it off any longer!

Upon completion students will receive a 2-year Health & Safety Institute (HSI) CPR & AED for Adult, Child & Infant certification, which follows all American Heart Association (AHA) standards and treatment recommendations.

Minimum Age: 12 years old - the minor(s) and a parent/guardian must all be paid registered participants.

The Giant Stairs Palisades hike is a 4-mile loop with about 800’ of elevation up and down. It's a difficult hike with large boulder scrambling and steep inclines and declines, but we will take it at a leisurely pace.

This hike explores the northern end of the New Jersey Section of the Palisades Interstate Park. It’s perhaps the most rewarding loop-hike in the park, as it includes several scenic features such as the Peanut Leap Cascade ruins and waterfall, Eastern Witness Monument, and panoramic north-facing views over the Hudson River with the Tappan Zee Bridge visible in the distance.

This fun and unique hike features the largest rock scramble you can hike in New Jersey – the Giant Stairs! We’ll scramble over this long section of huge boulders that tumbled from the Palisades Cliffs when a large section of the cliff face broke off and tumbled down to the river during a massive rockslide in May, 2012.

Navigating the Giant Stairs in an area this rich in history and stunning views makes for a fun and challenging morning!

Our most advanced instructional trip in the backpacking series adds hiking into the backcountry at night, more challenging terrain and scrambles, and an overall more ambitious itinerary over the weekend. Students will participate in the trip planning so they can expect to complete the trip as capable solo or group trip leaders.

This is a challenging 2-night backpacking trip with a roundtrip total of 10 miles including 3,700' of elevation change up and 2,700' of elevation change down. The scrambles leave smiles on everyone's faces and give us the opportunity to teach how to use rope to pull up our packs after scrambles and even create guidelines for additional safety and comfort (these are scrambles though, we're not rock climbing). We'll continue to teach footwork and scrambling tactics, setting up camp at night, and any other topics that come up. We'll be at your side every step of the way.

We’ll start off in the evening to hike in and find a suitable area to set up camp off-trail at night, simulating a typical after-work start to a backpacking trek. The next day we'll scramble up to the Burroughs Range ridgeline where we'll encounter the absolute best view in the Catskills atop Wittenberg Mountain, one of the Catskill 3500 peaks. We'll continue to scramble up the infamous Cornell Crack to summit Cornell Mountain for our second Catskill 3500 peak. To end the day we'll drop down into the saddle to set up camp and enjoy the evening and campfire. Our third day finds us scrambling up and over Slide Mountain, our third Catskill 3500 peak and the tallest in the Catskills.

Students will leave self-reliant and capable of using their skills and experiences to not only be confident independent backpackers, but to mentor others looking to experience the outdoors.

Minimum Gear: 50-70 liter backpack, shelter (tent, tarp shelter, bivy, or hammock), sleeping bag, sleeping pad, small pillow, lighter, water bottles or bladder for 4-5 liters of water, water filter, small knife, 75’ paracord, cell phone with USB charger & cable, headlamp & extra batteries, canister stove & fuel, cooking pot, utensils, food & snacks, bear hang food bag, first aid kit, personal toiletries, clothing for the weather, & hiking boots. A detailed packing list will be emailed to students after registration and you can contact us with any questions.

Minimum Age: 12 years old - the minor(s) and a parent/guardian must all be paid registered participants.

Digital App Hike Planning 1 is the prerequisite to this follow-up course, Digital App Hike Planning 2, which introduces new skills and reinforces what we learned in the first course. Skills are conveyed with a 3-hour hands-on exercise where we plan a backpacking trip from start to finish utilizing multiple apps for what each one does best.

Planning our virtual adventure will take us down a road where we will research places for a 5-day backpacking trip, choose our trailhead(s), investigate parking opportunities, research available daylight and weather constraints, plan our route with appropriate daily hikes based on elevation and terrain, choose primary and backup water sources and campsites, analyze risk and plan for bailout routes, identify our catching and collecting features to confirm navigation choices while in the field, and plan for emergencies. We'll discuss what food we'll carry and how much water, our cooking system, shelter system, and sleep system based on our route and conditions. Although CalTopo is our primary planning app, we will utilize other apps such as Avenza, AllTrails, PeakFinder, Google Maps, and internet searches to thoroughly plan an exciting fun trip that leaves no stone unturned and sets us up for success even if a low probability emergency should occur.

Minimum Age: 12 years old - the minor(s) and a parent/guardian must all be paid registered participants.
