Hooksum Outdoor School

Like nowhere else I've ever been. This was truly and unforgettable experience...


 Hooksum Outdoor School runs a West Coast Outdoor Leadership program. This intensive 28-day Training provides a solid foundation of outdoor and leadership skills and competencies. Hard skills — certifications in advanced wilderness first aid, lifesaving and sea kayaking — are taught in accordance with current professional standards. Learning about the natural world of Hesquiat Harbour, and indigenous values and culture is included in all activities. Using adventure-based, experiential learning, participants will gain the skills and knowledge necessary for safe and practical outdoor group leadership.




Stinky dead Grey whale. It looks like it was attacked by Orcas. There was large bit marks on the tale. 
Marty and I running a morning session...so beautiful.

I ran the PC Level 2 Skills courses for them. The program was excellent. We saw whales, bears, eagles, and speculator intertidal life. The students worked very hard, the location is outstanding, and Karen's food was amazing!  




Thank you Karen and Steve. I can't wait until next year!
