Level 2 Adventure Pursuits Activities

Adventure pursuits involves specific activities or categories of activities undertaken that have higher levels of inherent risk related to the activity, environment, and/or group than the activities covered in the Level 1 Manual.

The guidelines in this section are designed to serve leaders involved in providing activities that include one or more of the following criteria:

• Semi-remote to remote location:  out of the community (e.g., provincial park, wilderness river);
• Lack of clear boundaries for activity: an area one could get/remain lost in for more than an hour;
• Long duration: from a half-day to many days duration;
• Far from support services:  not close to accessible buildings and/or vehicles (e.g., for warmth, bathrooms, a landline to get help if needed);
• Not close to emergency services: more than 20 minutes from EMS arrival on-site;
• Specific leadership training required: these activities are of the sort that an instructor or leader should have some specific technical and instruction/leadership training;
• Significant preparation time of students: most students would require more than an hour and potentially several hours to days to properly prepare to participate.
