Roary Kiah

Join renowned survival expert Roary Archibald for an immersive three-day retreat designed to teach you the essential skills to survive and thrive in the wilderness.

This retreat style course attempts to mimic a 2 night 3 day survival scenario.

Participants will learn and experience what is a need verses a want in a real time situation.

Skills and topics covered but not limited to include;
-Core temperature stabilization
-Exposure limits and principles of proper shelter
-Clothing selection pros and cons
-Water locating, gathering and disinfection
-Fire skills including safety, building, sustaining, use and management along with ignition discussed 1.
1. Lighters and matches
2. Ferrocerium rods with and without magnesium
3. Rock and steel
4. Primitive methods like the Bow drill and Hand drill.

This experience will also include being partially fasted (practice of not eating), besides what food we find

This way, participants feel the realness of what the situation would actually be like.(certain medical conditions will always apply if needed).

During this experience, the participants will actually gain the skills and confidence for whatever situation they could end up in. “Real world practice makes real world skills.”

The required equipment will be provided including
-Knife
-Ferro rod
-Wool blanket
-Tarp
-Boil pot
-Paracord
-Bandanas

What should you bring? ⁃
-Personal list of gear will be simply your clothes (bring extra and I’ll show you what’s needed).
-If clothing recommendations are needed, please email me with any questions
-Personal medications if needed
-Water bottle
-I’ll provide a couple bonus items but I don’t want to give all the secrets away
