Trackers Apprenticeship
Wilderness Survival, Fishing & Foraging

Trackers Apprenticeship

Through our apprenticeships, expert Trackers Guides act as mentors to youth and teens learning in a small team of fellow Trackers. Kids share epic adventures while learning real outdoor skills from our Four Guilds:

Our Team

Our mentoring team includes our top Trackers staff featuring:

• Expertise in mentoring and Trackers skills.

Our Place

For Apprenticeships, we use buses or vans to journey from our drop site to authentic wilderness locations, featuring local forests, farms, and fishing spots. Each site is unique, specifically chosen for the day's activity, bringing kids to incredible places where they can both learn and grow in the skills Trackers teaches.
