Arctic & Cold Weather Training
Our Cold Environment Based Focus
When operating or responding in cold weather or arctic environments various factors are used to operate at full efficiency. It starts with physical fitness, footwear and clothing systems. From there, a unit can build upon their terrain specific negotiating skills. This would be a permanent snow-covered, non-permanent snow-covered, tundra, and/or glaciated. We've worked with several special operations, special forces and various other units operating in these environments. Knowing how to survive and negotiate terrain in cold weather environments is key to responding and operating in them.
