Course Description:

In addition to the obstacle course, integration of primitive survival skills will make this race unique. Here is what is covered in the 2-day training camp:

Aside from the race-competitors who will be attending, this weekend training camp will be open to anyone and everyone who is interested in training the hunter gatherer skills as well as the endurance, natural obstacle and problem solving skills.

There will be a multitude of hunter-gatherer skills covered, all of which could potentially be a part of the October (full) race. The skills we will learn and practice include:

Friction fire making (bow drill)
Knife care and use
Cordage making
Survival bow making/arrow fletching (pre-prepared arrow wood), intuitive shooting
Atlatl making and throwing
Knots and rope-work
Medicinal and edible plant identification & use
Edible insects & gathering
Sandal & primitive footwear making
Snare making
Primitive containers and water purification/boiling
Primitive cooking

Aid Stations:

Yes, we will have stations and staff. Because of the nature of this training camp, we have Wilderness First Aid Responder certified instructors on hand throughout the camp and race. Participants are responsible for their own nutrition throughout the camp.

Spectators:

Spectators are welcome and they may walk the grounds during the trial race on 8/4.

Parking:

Free

Other:

This training camp is coordinated with survival race organizer Fuego y Agua (http://fuegoyagua.org/). The full hunter gatherer survival race will be after this preparatory training camp in Rocksprings in October and then Nicaragua in February.

This race is different than most mud races because it integrates use of survival skills into an obstacle course and timed event under challenging conditions.
