🌊 Mmid-June adventures are about as good as it gets — long days, warm lakes, and in Huntsville, Ontario, the kind of Canadian wilderness that reminds you exactly why first aid training matters.

MHO Adventures will be facilitating a four-day Wilderness Advanced First Aid course to Huntsville, Ontario from June 15–18. WAFA is the ideal certification for outdoor enthusiasts, camp staff, trip leaders, and anyone who regularly finds themselves a long way from the nearest emergency room — and Huntsville is a fittingly wild classroom for it.

Four days, CA$745, and a skill set that will follow you into every backcountry adventure you take this summer and beyond.

⛰️ Newry, Maine sits deep in the western mountains — ski country in winter, wild and green in summer, and exactly the kind of place where wilderness medicine training feels less like a course and more like an adventure.

Far Out Maine is hosting a 7-Day Wilderness First Responder at the Maine Adaptive Sports & Recreation Mountain Center this June, led by instructor Robin Nesbeda. Seven immersive days — June 13–19 — no pre-course work required, just a willingness to show up and put in the work. The Bethel area has plenty of food and lodging options nearby, and if you'd rather keep it simple, there's room to pitch a tent or park a van right on site. With mountains all around it's not a bad office for a week.

Cost: $1,000
