Last Fall, I attended TrackersNW immersion program, where I learned how to build a fire without matches, how to identify edible plants, and how to create a business plan. It’s an interesting mix of skills, but the facilitators of the program feel passionately that there are ways for people to pursue their love of the outdoors while making enough money to quit their day jobs.
I continue to contribute to a blog written by the students, and my most recent post is called: Wilderness School MBA. It’s worth checking out (at least I hope it is), if you are interested in a career in the outdoor industries. I am very open to dialog on this subject, as I am continually learning about it myself.
