Wilderness First Aid courses

Feb. 10, 2026

Outdoor Adventures will be hosting two WMA Wilderness First Aid courses this month. A weekend course is offered on Feb. 21-22, and a weekday course is available Feb. 23-24.

This 16+ hour backcountry medicine course provides students with the tools and skills to solve problems and make decisions while out in the Alaskan backcountry. During this course, you will get information about first aid in a wilderness context. This includes assessing the severity of a medical problem, whether it is fixable in the field, and what evacuation, assistance, or resources are needed to resolve it. WMA provides this course curriculum. CPR/AED training is not included in this course.

This course is a must for anyone who spends time out in the woods in Alaska and is open to ÃÛÌÒTV students and members of the public. It costs $285.
