    Good stuff. I took a NOLS WFA course 2 years ago and really enjoyed it - learned a few things too.

    I took this class in Foxboro, Mass. a few weeks ago. The instructor was from the AMC's Highland Center and regularly teaches SOLO WFA. It's a full weekend, but we learned a lot; very worthwhile class to take. There was an optional CPR module also.

    Took this class back in May, 2011 at the GMC's HQ in Vermont-great instructors, good students who wanted to learn, great experience.
