"I wasn't sure what to expect, but I love this place. This transformative school doesn't just teach you primitive skills; this school teaches you how to connect with yourself, reflect on your perspectives as a modern human, and make new friends while having fun in the woods. I've taken two 5-day courses so far, and I look forward to many more. My wife joined in after my first class. Highly recommended!"
"As soon as I walked into the warm and cozy base lodge that smelled of firewood and nature, I knew I was in the right place. Mike has created a special atmosphere and cultivated his land with deep love. I did the 2-day winter survival skills course. It was great learning with a team with skill, knowledge, and authenticity. They highlight the importance of learning in community which means you also get to bond with the other open-minded students. I highly recommend MPSS, this course, and the community."
"This place is the best! Micheal Douglas and his wonderful family are the best! Mike cares about his craft, creating a community, and passing down primitive skills from one generation to the next. Hands down this is one of the best wilderness and survival schools you could ever attend."
"Amazing place, great staff. The Douglas are amazing! Great place"
"This place has changed my life. This school has provided amazing training in survival, friction fire including bow drill and hand drill. The bushcraft instruction has been fantastic."
