2008 Jungle Survival...
October 4th -
10th (7 days)
This class will combine the elements of a tracking class* with
our well-known jungle survival class. During the 7 days of instruction,
participants will learn both tracking and jungle survival in an organized
format, deep in the middle of the Amazon jungle (see
map of area). All instruction will be taught
in Spanish and English. Due to the amount of training involved in this class,
participant space is limited.
*The tracking element of this class has no association or parallels to TTOS.
Warning & Disclaimer: While we (RAT) do not consider this trip dangerous, we will be
miles from civilization without any means of quick evacuation. You will be in
the middle of the largest and most diverse jungle on Earth. Should an accident or injury occur, we
will make every effort to evacuate you to
civilization and primary care but we make no safety guarantees due to the remote nature
of these trips. Each person participates at their own risk! Although uncommon,
due to the nature of travel in remote locations the schedule of events are
subject to change. With that said, we always provide the participant with a
unique, once-in-a-lifetime jungle experience since we put you up-close and
personal with the jungle instead of viewing it through a tour operator's
eyes..
Each participant
will receive a specially engraved sheath knife from RAT Cutlery Co. and an
autographed copy of the book Adventure Travel in the Third World.
Completion certificates for both the tracking and jungle survival instruction will be mailed out after our return from South America.

refunds unless the trip is canceled by RAT. Participants are responsible for all
airfare from their point of departure to Iquitos, Peru. Participants can arrange
their airfare directly to Iquitos via www.expedia.com,

departs for the jungle on October 4th and until we return on October 10th. You must
be in Iquitos, Peru before the 4th of October.
