The Challenge Our Field Expeditions immerse you in the wilderness, where every step presents a new challenge. You’ll be pushed physically and mentally as you trek through some of the most beautiful and rugged landscapes in the country. From our very earliest days as an organization, we have earned the reputation of being the one of the most demanding survival school experiences, but BOSS is not a “tough love” military style survival school. Our instructors are in it with you. You will hike long and difficult miles in the desert heat, and with minimal gear and provisions. You will learn survival and wilderness skills, then rely on them. You will learn about your endurance, your strength, your mental toughness and survival mindset, and -– perhaps most importantly – yourself. Prerequisites No prior camping or outdoor experience is required. All applicants must complete a Health and Physical Exam packet with a physician, physician’s assistant, or nurse practitioner and obtain their signed approval before enrollment. A 1.5-mile, timed run (or equivalent endurance test) Participants must be 18 years or older. A high level of fitness preparation is strongly recommended.
