Wilderness Medical Training, Consulting and Expedition Medic
Welcome to Wilderness Medic. It is my hope that if you are interested in classes, need consulting services, or need help with your trip that you contact me.
I am a current NREMT-I, WEMT and a Wilderness Advanced Life Support instructor. Currently I split my time working as a lead instructor for Wilderness Medical Associates and as a ski patroller at Purgatory Mountain in Durango, Colorado.
I have been an EMT since 1992 and have worked professionally in the outdoors since 1990. I spent 18 summers in Northern Canada as a canoe guide mostly working in the Hudson Bay watershed. Prior to patrolling my winter work was as a guide for a therapeutic wilderness program in Utah.
Currently, when not teaching and patrolling, I volunteer as a medic/firefighter for Durango Fire & Rescue and am the Vice President and Training Officer for La Plata County Search and Rescue.
This site includes more information on my experience, class descriptions, our current schedule and links to other organizations we work with. If you or your group are interested in medical training and none of the existing classes suit your needs feel free to give me a call.
