What do you really need?

[Rick]

Personally, I thought two picnic tables was a little over the top but that's just me. I like to travel light.

[Canadian-guerilla]

10x12 tarp
light sleeping bag
7 cans of tuna ( half can morning - half can supper )
your choice of carbs ( minimum like tuna )
knife and fire starter
small steel pot and/or water purification pills

depends if one wants to just travel lite
or make this into a 7 day practice run for TSHTF

[Rick]

Oh, well. If it's a SHTF scenario then I need to add a case of TP.

[BraggSurvivor]

Oh, well. If it's a SHTF scenario then I need to add a case of TP.

Modern or 1840's, be about the same. Keep is under 20, not including the pistolla and 30shots.

Wool blanky and tarp.
Tin cup, small boiler, 5lb bag of rice.
Box of tea bags and box of buillon.
If I knew I was going, I'd make up about 5lbs of jerky. That's alot of jerky.
Fire starter.
Toothbrush and soap.
Extra socks.
Few cans of sardines in oil, for eating and bait. Oh, fishing line and hooks.
One 55gal. size black plastic bag, rolled up and put in the bottom of my haversack.

June in Ga., trout are biting, the berries are out, and I'd have no problem taking small game if given the chance. Critters like, beavers, muskrats, duck, small pig, loon, egret, snake, bobcat, kitty cat, coyote, dog with no collar, I've even seen a few wild goats running in the woods.


Hmmmmmmmmmm............rammmmmmmmmmmm. Yummy.

[Sam]

I could go with: tarp, blanket, bugspray, fishing line and hooks, snarewire bugspray, a couple of firestarter methods (matches, flint and steel) and a knife.
Oh yeah, and a water pot, I'm just spoiled that way.

Hey Trax, you forgot the extra bug spray.

[dilligaf2u2]

I want what I carry on me and in my pockets and my cook pot(coffee can will do). What can I say I live in desert and that time of year, it is already hot here.

Luxuries would be coffee, sugar, and Nelli Pooh, if I could pry her away from Trax.

Don

AWWWWWWWW Don! But I dont think Trax will give me up that easily

And what would TDW and TGF think???

[Sam]

Don is saving women up to become Mormon or something. :rollyeyes:

Well, I've had one of those days before. It just happens, like dollar drafts at the Mexican bar down the street. It's just one of those things where you need lots of TP.

Don't worry, a skinny teenager can last three to six weeks without food. If you're llike me, our fat asses will keep us for a couple of months easily. All we need is a good supply of water or Jack Daniels
