Itinerary
Sample delicious wild foods, make fire from friction, and more during this exciting adventure into the Sonoran Desert!
I’ll share lots of traditional native survival skills with you, such as how to make a water bottle from a cactus pad, a compass from just a stick & the sun, as well as showing you wild foods and useful items made from the plants around us- traditional hunting items, woven sandals, and more! You’ll also get a copy of my book, Useful Plants of the Southwest.
You will get plenty of hands-on survival skills as well- make fire using a fire by friction set carved from a Saguaro cactus, weave rope from a yucca leaf, carve a container from an agave stalk, as well as trying out other useful skills!
We’ll end our adventure in a beautiful canyon, enjoying the shady creek as we look for signs of javelina, road runners, coati, and other unique animals on the move before the coming heat of the day.
This a fantastic introduction into the splendor of the Sonoran Desert! You’ll come home with traditional items you’ve made, new outdoor skills, and great memories of this special wilderness.
