WILDERNESS MEDICINE COURSES

Katabatic Mountain School was created to facilitate training needs requested by our clients.  Our client base is composed of individuals, companies, and groups working and traveling in the some of the most remote and harshest environments on earth.  Our clients would receive appropriate wilderness medical training recommendations with our consulting program.  It made sense to incorporate our consulting expertise with our wilderness medical training, education, and teaching background to offer a complete start-to-finish concept for our clients.
We offer a variety of courses and tailor our programs to our clients’ specific needs.  Katabatic Mountain School instructors are all current practitioners in the field of wilderness and remote medicine.
Katabatic Mountain School offers custom group courses and occational open enrollment courses.  We tailor our courses for groups who work, train, and travel together for a common goal.  Our client demographic includes:


  • ·Participants with the United States Antarctic Program
  • Participants with the New Zealand Antarctic Program
  • Park Service Personnel
  • Tactical Teams
  • Drilling Groups
  • Expedition Members
  • Medical Providers in Rural Environments
  • Ski Patrol
  • Special Event Organizers
  • Research Organizations


Our wilderness courses are offered as stand-alone courses or as a component to a consultation package, depending on our client’s needs and request.
Katabatic Mountain School’s teaching facility is located in the beautiful Pikes Peak region of Southern Colorado.  We have multiple housing and conference room options, to include accommodations in cabins, yurts, and a mountain lodge.  Our teaching facilities and conference rooms are all located within walking distance from each other and we utilize over 1000 acres of wooded and open space located around our facilities.   
Katabatic Mountain School can also come to you! Whether you would like to train in your own geographic or response area or it is more convenient logistically for Katabatic Mountain School to conduct our course in your area we can conduct our courses wherever you prefer.
