🧗 Catch Global Emergency Medics in Boulder, Colorado for two wilderness medicine courses this June, led by instructor Darren Stokes in a city that practically invented the outdoor lifestyle. World-class climbing, trail running, and hiking are steps from the classroom — and the WFR skills you'll build in the course are what make all of that time in the mountains worth something when things go sideways.⁠ ⁠ Whether you're locking in your certification with the 5-Day Wilderness First Responder (Jun 17–21 | $900) or refreshing your skills with the WFR Recertification (Jun 19–21 | $425), Darren and the Global Emergency Medics team deliver the kind of hands-on, scenario-based training that sticks long after you leave the classroom. Pre-course work required for the WFR; eligibility verification required for the recert.⁠ ⁠ 🔗 Register now using the link in our bio! ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #WildernessFirstAid #WildernessFirstResponder #WildernessMedicine #WMAInternational #WildernessMedicalAssociates #WMA #FaceAnyChallengeAnywhere #BackcountryMedicine #RemoteMedicine #WFR #WFA #WEMT #FirstAid #Hiking #Biking #Skiing
