Join us for the Mountain Wilderness Safety Workshop, organized by the Office of Student Life in collaboration with the Alpine Club. This interactive session is designed to help Franklin students safely plan and enjoy outdoor adventures in Switzerland by providing practical knowledge, essential safety tips, and useful resources.
Participants will learn how to assess hiking routes, prepare for changing weather conditions, use essential safety and navigation apps, pack the right equipment, and apply key mountain safety principles such as the buddy system and emergency planning. The workshop will also introduce important first aid concepts and outdoor risk management strategies.
Whether you are new to hiking in the Alps or already enjoy exploring the outdoors, this workshop will help you build the confidence and skills needed to make informed decisions and enjoy the mountains responsibly and safely
