Wilderness Instructor Development Process | JMB Podcast Episode 98

Listen Later

For episode 98 of the JMB podcast, we discuss the process of developing wilderness instructors and guides. We outline the following steps to the process:

  • Take a course and get the Journeyman certification
  • Take a medical class, first aid or wilderness first responder
  • Take and pass the test to become a Registered Maine Guide
  • Go on a bunch of trips to learn the waterways and fine-tune your systems
  • Do a practicum, where you live with a certain level of (low) technology for 2-3 weeks to lock it in and make it part of you

    • PHOTO: Poling on the St. Croix, the border between New Brunswick, Canada and downeast Maine.
