I'm looking for a wilderness first aid class in Michigan. I have found a couple, but I am looking for one someone has taken and can give some feedback. Thanks

I have taken the Wilderness First Aid class lead by Aerie Backcountry medicine. I Dont have anything else to compare it to, but The class was good.
I had to get certified due to leading youth on wilderness trips.

Look into DART 1 held through MDFI. My wife and I both took it last year and we found it incredibly beneficial.

It’s a Michigan-based firearms training company. I’ve taken a few handgun and carbine classes with them over the past few years and they’re top-notch in terms of safety, instruction, and not too much “political” talk. The medical course was a two-day course with an instructor they brought in from Colorado (Dark Angel Medical) and we took it at the Grass Lake Sportsman’s club - the focus was on emergency triage in the field. It definitely changed how I approach hunting and anything firearm related for a safety perspective and I do feel much more equipped to handle medical emergencies. Not sure if that’s what you’re looking for or not, though.
