Conibear Trapping Course
Add the ancient skill of trapping to your survival plan. A Conibear Trapping Kit will last for generations and provide food from the wilderness indefinitely. Unlike hunting game, a trap will work for you 24/7 in all weather conditions to provide food and fur. Create bait stations, habitat, and trapping opportunities to ensure a steady supply food from the wild.

James Boggs
James was raised in an outdoor life style. He grew up shooting, hunting, fishing, camping and trapping at every opportunity. After 20 years as a competitive shooter he retired from competition after winning an IDPA State Title. He continues to teach firearm classes as an NRA instructor. James has studied short and long term wilderness skills, urban survival, wilderness first aid, herbal medicine, botany and wildcrafting, green woodworking, knapping, blacksmithing, bladesmithing, bowmaking and trapping. He is passionate about learning, testing and developing new skills. He enjoys passing on these skills either in person, as an Instructor at Campcraft Outdoors, through YouTube and Online courses. If he is not working on a new skill or sitting silently in a tree stand watching a game trail, he is probably spending time with his wife of over 20 years and their two kids.
