I can neither confirm nor deny the existence or non-existence of alleged seminar.

You would think that BPL would take the opportunity to promote themselves with an article or trip report by an attendee. There’s been basically nothing ever written about any of the trips or classes. Just seem weird.

Didn’t a lady write an article here a few years ago about her experience in one of the classes and later she hiked the AT or some other long trail?

So once in 15 years. That was a wilderness trekking class. I do remember that now. Still seems odd that they are so shrouded in mystery. And I am curious about this latest one.

There are a few photo essays. But they don’t really talk about the class structure, quality of content, how well organized, worth the money, etc… Also the links given in them no longer work.

I am interested in hearing about the recent winter skills seminar from anyone who attended. I was surprised to see how reasonable flights from Sacramento to Bozeman were. Hotels in Bozeman that time of year were not outrageous either.

Well, Ken, you can kill two birds at once. Go to the BPL MLife summit and then the wilderness course. One plane ticket for both.

Yes, I stand corrected Doug. Not the first time. Weird that they are done as a photo essay, post trip reports, and not listed in articles.

I remember 2-3.  Not very many.  They should offer a discount if you write one.  Maybe free attendance to the annual planning meeting.
