01 — Instructional Overview

Each Woodlander experience includes an introductory course (live online) which covers the fundamentals of wilderness experience, what to expect on a hunt or hike, the philosophy of wildlife conservation and sustainability, and a preparation and packing checklist for you to use on your own.

02 — Comprehensive Field Prep (for game hunters)

Each game hunt expedition is preceded by an onsite field instruction weekend. This 2-day session is designed to acclimate you to the climate, terrain, and geography of your game hunt location, as well as to review best practices for weapon preparation, survival skills, and basic outdoor emergency preparedness.

03 — Seasonal Game Hunting

Choose from a wide variety of small and large game hunts, seasonally dependent. Select a time of year that works best for your schedule. Whether you choose large game or small, four-legged or two-legged prey, we are prepared to adhere to our ethical principles and high standards while facilitating the optimum opportunity for success.

04 — Seasonal Fishing Intensive

Fishing seasons allow for similar opportunities to explore nature, learn about our ecosystems, to appreciate our environment and to put food on the table, while reducing the overhead for licensure and lengthy overland travel required for hunting. Although like any craft, it can take a lifetime to master, you can be fishing successfully within an hour of instruction with extremely low risk of injury or mishap.

05 — Wilderness Hiking and Camping

Hiking in the wilderness is one of the simplest pleasures available to us. Proper planning, map reconnaissance, terrain analysis, navigation, and emergency preparedness - can keep things from getting complicated in unexpected ways. Overnight wilderness camping can take many forms, from primitive shelters to comfortable cabins, each experience can be suited to your skills and preferences.
