Wilderness or survival classes in Indiana?

[bingley]

Has anyone done any wilderness, primitive skills, or survival classes in Indiana? I can only find one listing in our state:

80+ Wilderness Survival, Primitive Living Skills & Nature Awareness Schools across North America

Does anyone know about this Wild Nature Project (the only listing for Indiana)? Do they offer good training?

This would be an ideal time of year for someone to teach an edible wild foods class...

Live Free USA's main headquarters is based out of Munster, Indiana. They hold free programs all through the year, and at times they will hold special training sessions with instructors that normally charge for their classes at a discounted fee based on the amount of attendees. They regularly hold training meets at the Cabelas in Hammond, Indiana. On April 15th. there will be a local chapter meeting and class taught at the Charley Horse Restaurant in Munster on Calumet ave. across from Munster Community Hospital. There will also be a weekend outing at the Tippecanoe State Park here in Indiana on May 5th. They will have a bunch of cabins set aside for the weekend, with arrivals starting Friday evening. Multiple classes are scheduled throughout Saturday all the way into the evening. Sunday they will cleanup and close their event. This is one of their largest events for the year. If your interested you can pm me or just goto their website at www.americansurvivor.org .

Thanks for the information. Do you have "after action reports" or reviews from past students? That will really help people get a sense of what the courses feel like and whether the time and money commitment is right for them.

His book on BOBs is very good. Well written and reasonable.
I bet his classes are good too.

I've been looking at Willow Haven for a while. I first learned of Creek Stewart from his articles on Art of Manliness and got really interested when I saw he was located in Anderson. All the reviews I've ever seen are very positive.

His Survivacation package looks great.
