The vision of TBP is to inspire and help those who wish to experience the wilderness safely by teaching them the necessary skills through our courses & challenges, resulting in a fun and memorable experience.
TrailBounders share a passion for the outdoors and a craving to experience all that comes with it. However, heading into the wilderness safely and efficiently is a skill that takes education, time, and dedication to accomplish. To that end, we created a school that provides the tools for novices and experts alike to rapidly improve their confidence and skills.

About the Intro to Wilderness First Aid Workshop
![](https://www.nynjtc.org/sites/default/files/civicrm/persist/contribute/images/1%281%29.jpg)
A medical emergency can happen anywhere, but when it happens in the woods our resources are limited and help might not be an immediate option. We only have ourselves, what’s in our pack, and what's in the environment. Workshop participants will learn some vital wilderness first aid skills for just such emergencies.
It's crucial to have the right tools, the right skills, and the know-how to improvise when faced with a medical emergency in the woods. With practical hands-on exercises, we’ll go over some of those important skills and what you can use from your backpack and the environment. Developed from years of teaching wilderness first aid to Search & Rescue professionals, workshop participants will learn several skills taught in the full 16-hour WFA Wilderness First Aid course such as taking pulses, proper bandaging, improvised splinting, improvised tourniquets, and more. The skills you learn will not only apply just when hiking, but anytime you're in the outdoors. Having the knowledge and confidence to step up and help in a time of need is invaluable. It starts by learning and practicing to develop muscle memory for those emergencies.
Note: This is a 3-hour workshop and not a certification course.
