    Default Hey everybody

    Hey everybody, how are you doing today? My wife and I have been getting more and more into survival/primitive knowledge as well as backpacking/hiking. Neither of us have any real training in these areas, but both have some good experience. My parents raised me camping/hiking/surviving/etc, and my wife spent some time in camp when she was younger. I just recently got out of the Navy and headed back home to Phoenix, Az.

    Your Occupation: Right now I'm a full time student.

    Your Prior Relevant Training: Like I said above, I don't have any real training in this area.

    The Nature of Your Prior Experience: Much of my younger years were spent camping and traveling all over the US with my parents

    Your Level of Experience: I guess I'm somewhere from and Idiot to an expert. I guess I'll find out the more I learn the things I don't know.

    Welcome to WSF.
    I had a compass, but without a map, it's just a cool toy to show you where oceans and ice are.
