Peak Adventures Wilderness First Aid Course

About this event

Join us for a 16-hour, hands-on Wilderness First Aid (WFA) course designed for Sac State Students, hikers, campers, outdoor leaders, and anyone who loves exploring our local trails and outdoor spaces. Over the course of two days, you will learn how to assess and confidently respond to emergencies when First Responders are hours away. You will walk away with a Wilderness First Aid Certification and CPR/AED/First Aid Certification and the knowledge to save lives and make informed decisions in the backcountry. Day 1 will be a four-hour lecture and practice session from 5 pm to 9 pm held at the Peak Adventures Ropes Course on Sacramento State’s Campus, just behind Yosemite Hall. On Day 2, we will meet at the Peak Adventures ropes course at 7:00 am to begin a twelve-hour day of instruction and practice. Snacks and water will be provided. You must bring a packed lunch. More details will be provided upon sign-up. Please contact us for more information. We may travel for Day 2. Location TBD, but within 1 hour of Campus.
