This challenge includes tasks such as navigating to multiple checkpoints using a map and compass, locating and purifying water, building a shelter using natural materials, and preparing a meal with foraged items or caught fish. This intensive exercise tests participants’ endurance, survival skills, and ability to apply knowledge under realistic conditions.
  • Rescue Mission ScenarioIn this activity, participants are given a scenario where they must execute a rescue mission using their first aid and emergency response skills. Teams will need to locate a “lost” camper (a role played by an instructor), assess and treat their injuries using wilderness first aid techniques, and safely evacuate them to a designated extraction point. This tests not only their medical and safety skills but also their ability to work as a team under pressure.
  • Reflection and Survival Skills ShowcaseEnd the camp with a “Reflection and Survival Skills Showcase,” where each participant or team presents a summary of their experience during the Ultimate Survival Challenge and the Rescue Mission Scenario.
