Earth Tracks Outdoor School specializes in Nature Education and Wilderness Canoe Trips.  Our programs range from multi-day naturalist-led wilderness canoe trips to earth skills classes and workshops for people of all ages and experience levels.  We cover a wide variety of topics related to naturalist/tracking studies and wilderness skills development that help to foster a deep connection to the Earth.

We blend ancient and modern wisdom through our teaching style and view nature as the ultimate teacher.  Our classes and trips are small and very focused, providing quality education and practical field experience.  Both the curious beginner and seasoned outdoors person will benefit from our programs and we are equally committed to both.  We offer classes that are suitable for adults as well as children and create a strong 8 Shields mentoring experience for all participants.

By learning from Nature through immersion and direct experience we begin to see and link the complexities and inter-relatedness of all things in the natural world.  We also begin to see the important role that we all can play in protecting and preserving these things for the future generations.  As we progress through this journey we move closer to walking the path of our Vision and living a life of balance and meaning, developing a deep sense of connection to the world around us.

 



At Earth Tracks we help to guide people in learning how to live a life in close relationship to the earth through quality education, mentoring and direct experience.  We invite you to come and join us in this adventure.


"The Earth is the ultimate provider and for countless generations our ancestors knew how to survive and live in harmony with nature. By learning and practicing these skills we begin to experience nature in an ancient and meaningful way."
