Thanks for joining our Costa Rica Workshop!
Below are some informational articles to prepare you for your upcoming workshop. They can help with gear selection, getting your gear to the resort, what clothing to pack, and what to expect when traveling. We’ve also included some documents from the resort if you’d like to browse though those as well. Finally, I’d linked some regular articles that have techniques we use while in Costa Rica that I HIGHLY recommend you review as well. (LOL – sorry for the homework!)
Here are the documents, please read them over carefully.
