You couldn’t ask for a better location for a WFR course than the Presidio. In 1994 after over 200 years of continuous use as a military post, the Presidio became a 1,491-acre addition to the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Now, the park consists of designed landscapes, wild forest, and the nearly 800 buildings now house tenants like Planet Granite, cafes, nurseries, and environmental non-profits. This varied environment gives our instructors lots of options when designing outdoor scenarios for class, and you’ll get to do some fun exploring on your lunch breaks!

All course registrations are arranged directly though RMI, so give us a call at 1 (206) 686-4878 or toll free (800) 597-4911. Questions? Email info@remotemedical.com.
See you in San Francisco!
