In March, as Explore students we began our Wilderness First Responder course followed by a few days of search and rescue training. We spent portions of our classtime in lecture and discussion. But, the best part of our training were scenarios where we practiced our skills. We worked on many different skills including giving shots, stabilizing broken bones, dealing with acute stress reactions, and cleaning wounds. Near the end our training a helicopter rescue team came to Camp Bighorn and spoke with us about their jobs. All year long I had waited, and I was glad when we finally began this course because I enjoy the practical medical aspect of this course. Thanks to the staff of Camp Bighorn for taking pictures of our course!
