    Overlanding First Aid with Flip Griffin

    Overlanding First Aid with Flip Griffin

    Flip Griffin joins to talk to us about a variety of considerations regarding first aid in the wilderness. Flip is a 20 year veteran of the U.S. Navy with experience in Special Operations as a medical corpsman.  Flip has an exclusive offer for the Budget Overland Community.

    The Sartooth Group LLC is an overlanding-specific training company dedicated to providing basic wilderness medicine knowledge and product support to the Overlanding World. As Overlanding is self- reliant overland travel to remote destinations where the journey is the principal goal, situations happen that require basic wilderness medical care. Since

    Overlanding is accomplished with mechanized off- road-capable transport where the principal form of lodging is camping, often lasting for extended lengths of time and spanning international boundaries this presents geographical and logistical challenges for emergency care.

    We believe that during times of crisis in remote locations anyone can be a leader; it’s our role to provide the environment and training to help you discover your full potential. We do that in online medical learning and in remote wilderness areas
    around the world specifically geared toward Overlanders.

    Get Outdoors. Be Prepared.
