@HoChiScreamin whatz your current experience level?
Minimal. I would say entry level
I have some basic equipment and know how. I worked at an outdoors equipment store to get some knowledge, and I’m about to get my first aid certification for the applied knowledge
Nice
Food, Water, Shelter
Yea
I’m in BC so water is covered
For Food: knife, gun or bow, rope/cordage
Acquiring Water is mostly about knowledge of terrain, learning where youre most likely to find it in your specific area which requires you to explore
And for shelter all you need is a tarp and a way to pitch it
I already know how/where to gather it
BC is good for berries too yeah?
And yea, food will be the thing. I think I actually have a spot
Y'all get salmonberries up there?
Yea, I got a few books on the berries and fungi of the Pacific Northwest
Haven’t studied them enough though
Honestly, we used to. I rarely see Berry’s anymore. Starting about ten years ago, there was seemingly a concerted effort to remove berries or natural food sources from remotely populated areas so the homeless would t hang about
It sucks we used to get wild strawberries and stuff
Thats fucking lame
It rly is
Just means you gotta go out further
Deep into the wilderness
Yea I have a spot I don’t wanna say
That being said, berries are a very easy food source
So learn to identify them and get comfortable with it
Are you a survivalist person
Also find any greens that are easy to identify in your area, there should be a few with no poisonous look-a-likes
Yeet
I am
I think we have wild arugula and lettuce idk tho
That’s sick where are you?
Do y'all have fireweed?
I think you should
I'm in Michigan
No idea
Huh
So far multiple people in Michigan
Moving to Alaska in a year though
That’s sick. Enjoy the purity
Yeet
Its a good place for people like me
Do you have guns or bows?
