When I first started packrafting, Luc Mehl’s The Packraft Handbook was a huge resource for me to learn from. Thru the book, I then took online coursework thru Luc for Paddle Up A Level and Start and End at Home. Both courses offered me a ton of knowledge both thru the self-paced online curriculum and the opportunities for group calls to learn from others during the sessions. While I came to the courses to become a better packrafter, what I did not expect was how much more I learned about risk management, mindfulness, and the opportunities that the outdoors can afford when you have the right tools to find them. I cannot recommend these courses highly enough. Click the link below to find out more.
