Worry not! Learn your knots for your next adventure.
This event is intended for participants 11+ years of age.
This workshop focuses on three essential knots for outdoor adventures: the Bowline, Alpine, Butterfly, and Trucker’s Hitch. Participants will learn when and how to tie each knot, ensuring they are reliable and secure. The session also includes a photo talk about Jeska's upcoming Arctic expedition and lessons from past expeditions, followed by a Q&A. Participants will leave with practical knot-tying skills and a take-home reference guide (available in English and Spanish upon request).
