Join NOLS Alumni for another unforgettable hiking adventure through the stunning Velebit Mountains! We’ve been exploring Croatia for years, and now we’re diving even deeper into its wild heart with our hut-to-hut journey through three amazing national parks. Enjoy epic views, peaceful beech forests, breezy daypacks (thanks to vehicle support 🙌), and the rustic charm of remote mountain huts, all without the crowds. This trip blends adventure with comfort as only NOLS can. Let’s go to Croatia! More info here: https://www.nols.edu/en/coursefinder/sessions/20584/ #nolsedu #croatia #alumni #backpacking (fb)

Build your first aid kit for your adventure. NOLS Wilderness Medicine + Adventure Medical Kits remind you: pack for the risks, not just the distance. 🥾 Day hiking? Blister care items like tape are frequently used items. 🔧 Running a chainsaw for a trail crew? Consider bringing a tourniquet. 🎯 Mountain biking? Consider wound management supplies. ⛺ Extended expedition? Add wound care supplies, medications, and a way to communicate should you need an evacuation. We recommend repacking your kit before each outing to make sure it aligns with your anticipated plan (and hazards). Remember, the best kit is the one that’s built for your situation and that knowing how to use your kit is imperative. #WildernessMedicine #AdventureReady #SmartPacking #NOLSWildernessMedicine #AdventureMedicalKits (fb)
