Trip Report

This is the first time Obsidians sponsored a NOLS Wilderness First Aid class and it won't be the last. The class was engaging, informative and fun. We spent time both inside and outside the Lodge for 2 days learning how to assess and treat patients for various injuries and illnesses. The use of stage make-up to simulate blood and bruising made it extra fun.
