Wilderness skills
The winter wilderness invites you to learn, explore and try things
for yourself. With our guide, you will discover essential outdoor
skills and practical ways to stay warm and safe in Arctic conditions.
The snowy landscape becomes a place to practise, learn and work together.
We practise fire lighting and build a traditional quinzee snow
shelter. As the work progresses, you will see how a pile of snow
becomes a sheltered space and learn how snow can offer protection
from the winter cold. Our guide will explain each stage and help
you understand what it takes to spend time outdoors in winter.
This activity combines practical learning with the peace of the
winter wilderness. You will take away useful skills and greater
confidence for your future outdoor adventures.
