Wilderness Medicine Outfitters (WMO) first class was taught at Colorado State University in 1967 where Carl Weil was trained as a First Aid Instructor and Athletic Trainer who studied graduate nutrition and Veterinary medicine. His courses reflected his veterinary courses as well as actual western ranch medical care given to animals and injured cowboys ranging from knife and ax wounds to gunshots.  WMO went off grid to full solar electrical powered on its 130 acre conservation easement campus in 1984. It has a mature staff with most instructors over 50 years old. WMO has the largest number of Instructors who are fellows of the Academy of Wideness Medicine of any school several times its size.  WMO is a pioneer in distance learning and blended Wilderness Medicine classes since 2005.
