Hello Friends!
As I said in my last post, I've been on the road a lot lately–which is good cause I have more info to share with y'all, but have gotten a little behind on blogging, so am now playing catch up–and not the kind that goes on fries either! (Yes, I'm here all week folks! LOL). This post is a follow up to the last one on survival skills.
Winter Adventure Weekend at Carter Caves State Resort Park
I mention on the About page that I grew up in rural eastern KY, so I learned a lot about outdoor safety and survival skills just growing up there. However, I attended my first survival skills workshop a few years ago and then another one in 2018, both of which were held in my home state of Kentucky at Carter Caves State Resort Parkduring their Winter Adventure Weekend, an annual event held the last weekend in January. http://www.winteradventureweekend.com
The WAW is a fantastic event that includes so many activities you cannot do them all in one weekend–such as ziplining, rappelling, rock climbing, hiking, campfire cooking, of course the cave tours and so much more–including survival skill workshops like fire building, land navigation, shelter building, etc., all held within this beautiful state park
Beautiful scenery
known for its extensive cave system. I encourage you to attend the WAW. There is something for everyone and you will

have a great time! However, the lodge and cabins stay booked during that time with repeat adventurers, so you can put your name on the waiting list in case there are some cancellations or you can do a little winter time camping in the campground.
