I'll endeavor to make this simple, And Change the 10 mile requirement to 5 miles.
1). You must move (5) Five miles every day on average or you will be killed. Note: you could do 10 miles one day and none the next day. The point is you have to keep moving, You can't build a homestead, or nice shelter.
2). You will have to get your food from the environment.
3). The "WHY" is not important, if you need a why.......you are being hunted and wanted dead or alive. The Why does not matter.
4). I guess in theory you could loop around to an earlier campsite and improve it, but you must move 5 miles the next day.
OK, pretend there is a million dollar prize to the first person in American to do this, having started after April 10'th 2011 Plus you get to be a real hero, and write a book about the adventure.
I find it interesting that people want to change the original post because it does not make sense. Only Dogman was willing to accept the challenge unaltered.
I could NOT do it. Not for one year. Maybe I could do it for 6 months......Maybe. Mostly what I am looking for is a valid argument that the procurement of food would be the key to success or death.
