Fieldcraft Workshop | Knots & Tarps
Join our monthly recurring Fieldcraft Workshop Series!
Our Fieldcraft Workshop series provides an opportunity to learn and practice essential wilderness skills, covering a broad range of topics from everyday skills like knot-tying and knife work to potentially life-saving survival skills like shelter and fire construction. These workshops also provide a taste of our annual Fieldcraft Cohort, which takes place in the fall.
For this workshop, you'll learn five knots essential to tarp-shelter construction, as well as various configurations using both poncho-tarps and rain tarps that can be applied to multiple different scenarios.
