UNM Wilderness, Improvisational and International Medicine 2008

Hello from Albuquerque to all taking the March class!
We are excited to have you come out at the end of February. Things are on track for another OUTSTANDING course-so get ready to learn, live, and laugh! Although I am honing my survival skills a bit (practicing with a bow and drill for firestarting), I have been "checking" out the snow for you as well. The backcountry skiing and snowshoeing is really good this year, and the weather is mild after several weeks of pretty cold weather. Dress properly...we are all meeting at the Copper open space for orientation at 1pm on Feb 25. You should have received a map. Registration will be done first (we will also do a little "accounting" work). Then, on a nice hike. Give us a jingle at 505-272-5062, or email me at dmacias@salud.unm.edu for questions. If you have anything that you would like to learn other than what is on the WIIM website, let us know. And tell your friends and family not to get too jealous while you embark on this fun educational event...
Cheers, aloha, namaste, and hasta...Darryl (Dario)

Great job. Your website is wonderful. I think you guys bring new perspective beyond the "usual old boys club" of wilderness medicine-those guys are the same people doing different conferences. See you on Rainier, and hopefully, Nepal!
