Robert Frost could have used a local guide when he decided to take the road less traveled, as he discovered only too late that it was a gully carved to redirect flowing lava. Stay on the right path with this Groupon.

In a five-hour course, students learn the essentials for surviving in a wintery wilderness at Provo Canyon's Bridal Veil Falls. The curriculum covers such self-preservation necessities as constructing shelter, building a fire, and locating food and water, imbuing pupils with the calm confidence needed to tackle any survival situation. Classes take place on select Saturdays at 8 a.m.

Live Life Survival

Captivated by the adventures of Robinson Crusoe, a young Dan Whiting signed up for a wilderness survival hike in search of similar swashbuckling. It didn’t turn out as he had hoped. “The only thing I learned was that you can get really hungry and really thirsty in the desert.” Whiting vowed to approach his own outdoor adventures differently. He now believes nature can be abundant and nurturing rather than barren and trying—provided you have the tools to understand it, that is.

Although Whiting has studied dozens of field guides, he learned his most valuable lessons via firsthand experience. To wit: he has eaten 78 plants to date and knows just as many recipes. On one expedition, Mr. Whiting was delighted when a participant turned to him and said, “I had no idea there was so much food up here.”

The wilderness expert acknowledges that people may learn skills that could one day save their lives. But his ultimate goal is to transform the way people think about being outdoors. “When you are familiar with animals and plants, you feel free. When you have intimate knowledge of how something tastes, feels, smells, then there’s no fear of it anymore. It’s just everyday life."

The Groupon Guide to: Car Upgrades

Cars aren't made like they used to be, which is why their engines break down quickly and their bodies start on fire after only minutes in direct sunlight. When you're buying a new car to replace your junk one, consider these special auto upgrades:

  • Air freshener
  • Two air fresheners
  • Seat coverings that smell like a person you either love or would like to love
  • Music system with bass and treble
  • Rustproofing
  • Soundproofing
  • Diseaseproofing
  • Trunk with plenty of leg room
  • Auto dogs
  • Soft, touchable wheels
  • Car body that won't suddenly burst into flames

Why does my car smell like my father?
