Did you survive the first time? Then come back for more! After a wildly popular Surviving in the Desert workshop, Jon Helleson of Southwest Survival returns to the Presidio for a deeper dive into primitive skills.
In this hands-on class, you’ll carve your own traditional fire-by-friction set and learn how to coax flame from wood using only natural materials and ancient techniques. Jon will guide you step-by-step through the process, blending practical survival knowledge with a deep respect for ancestral ways.
Whether you’re a seasoned outdoor enthusiast or just curious about self-reliance skills, this experience is sure to ignite your inner firestarter. Plus, you’ll leave with your very own hand-crafted fire set — a true badge of survival skill.
🔥 Space is limited — reserve your spot today and spark a connection to the past!
