The Ducks Are in the Nest

Through rain, sleet, snow, and hail, FSW-2 will prevail.
Back at the branch after spending several frozen and snowy days in Texas at the end of their Rio Grande River section, FSW-2 now prepares for the Independent Small Group Travel section in the Galiuros Mountains where they will put all their risk management and leadership training to the test by hiking without instructors for up to a week. Right now, the Southwest Branch has three groups in the Galiuros, including a group of NASA astronauts on a NOLS Pro course.
Be sure to keep reading the blog for updates on the student groups as the fall season comes to a close.
And now, MORE PICTURES FROM THE FIELD!!!
