About Us
Fire Wolf Self-Reliance was founded on a passion for the outdoors, self-sufficiency, and real-world survival skills. Based in Lake Isabella, California, our wilderness survival school is the result of over 20 years of experience practicing and teaching bushcraft, land navigation, and emergency preparedness across diverse environments and seasons.
Our mission is simple: to provide hands-on, high-quality wilderness survival training that prepares individuals for real-world situations. Whether you're a beginner building confidence in the outdoors or an experienced adventurer looking to refine your skills, our courses deliver practical, field-tested instruction designed to help you thrive in the wild.
Our Story
My journey into survival training began with a Cub Scout camping trip in the local mountains near Lake Isabella. That early experience sparked a lifelong passion for the outdoors—and a drive to master the skills needed to live off the land.
Over the years, I’ve honed my expertise in land navigation, firecraft, foraging, wilderness shelter building, and emergency survival techniques—testing everything in real-world conditions. After years of training and teaching others, I founded Fire Wolf Self-Reliance to share this knowledge with anyone seeking a deeper connection to nature and the ability to take care of themselves in any environment.
To me, survival isn't just about overcoming challenges—it’s about developing the mindset to adapt, endure, and respect the land around you.

Survival Vs. Self Reliance
"While wilderness survival TV shows often depict experts navigating simulated challenges, real-life emergencies can differ significantly. Such situations typically arise from unforeseen errors that jeopardize safety. Embracing self-reliance equips you with crucial skills for effective self-rescue. It involves meticulous planning, physical and mental preparedness, and sound decision-making. With self-reliance, you can transform potential adversities into manageable outdoor experiences, utilizing your skills and maintaining the mindset to thrive under pressure."
