The average time it takes students is 2.5 hours. You can stop and start the class anytime you want - you don't ahve to take it all at once. Once at the Wilderness Skills Insittute, please be prepared to discuss what you learned from the class, what surprised you, and what was the most important thing you got from the curriculum.
