I noticed, and expected, that everyone jumped on the Global Warming bandwagon with their favorite propaganda , but 90% of you miseed the survival part of the initial post. I have to wonder, if a...
Wow! Unreal.
Yeah, begin with fire skills. You heat several rocks and you could throw them right in the pit you dug if need be. I've never owned or used a water filter, but I do carry iodine (2% liquid) in my...
I read the question, and gave my answer. My bad for not reading all the thread.... Ok, so I suck... It's hard reading through all the B.S. that pops up in a lot of these threads, so I tend to just...
I did NOT intend this to be a political discussion, I intended it it to be a discussion based on a simple scenario (climate change) and possible pole shift. YOU folks made it political. Debate is...
oops... sorry....

Well, assuming the poles shift 180*, if you want to go north you now use the white...
Never learned to make a knife, although I think I have the principals down. What all is involved?
Nice blade, and damascus steel to boot. I might go with a rubber tire base (comfortable, and could be used as black signal smoke if needed) with a cord wrapper.
does the company offer handles? ...
You don't have to dry it for 10 days, put it on a sheet pan (cookie sheet) and put it in the oven at about 160-170, and it will dry that way, but make sure you use a pan you can scrape it off of. ...
Aside from the record low temps in many places, and the established fact that the planet hasn't warmed any in ten years and is beginning a cooling trend, what do you all think about global warming,...
Seems to me that asking a crop of people who wouldn't have gotten into the scenario to begin with what they would do if they HAD gotten into the scenario is a bit like asking a deaf man about his...
Now THAT was funny
You can get a decent LED to put on the brim of your hat. Seems to me a light on a knife would be not only dangerous and unwieldy, but the light almost COULDN'T be where you need it. It'd be...
Personally, I'd end up getting bit anyway, cuz I'd beat it, and me, and all the space around us half to death just trying to get out. Snakes scare me, even garters. I'm not TOO crazy about lizards...
Yeah, so anyway, The question seemed to be about bears, not cats (which the chances of you seeing before an atack is slim). If you can't hear a miffed moose coming in time to get out of it's way, ya...
Shelter. Even after an ice dunk, I'd remove clothing, find shelter then a fire to warm both. It'd keep you mobile, and you could still shiver to death trying to build a fire with no shelter to...
Being an over-the-road trucker I can pipe in here with some expertise: Everything above is true, false, and general. Most cities have some sort of plan that quickly goes to pot after it grows a bit,...
I haven't read all the replies, but the people who are USUALLY (but by no means always) attacked by bears are lone hunters or hikers. They rarely attack groups, theoretically because of noise. Wear...
Curious place, many personalities.
Anyhoo, I'm a trucker who doesn't really call anyplace home, but my licence says I live in Michigan, and I actually go there occassionally.
My survival skills...
tried it myself, works fine, wouldn't depend on it.
an ex-prison guard friend showed me a convict lighter, you take a battery and a thin strip of the the foil from a cigarette pack, touch one end...
...that nothing can be mastered just by watching and doing, however there are probably as many people who come here to learn as to teach.
I also think that mastery is a moving target. Any true...
I rarely have time to practice, and when I do have time I'm usually somewhere where it would be frowned upon (I'm a truck driver). I mentally practice while I drive, by giving myself a...
