I haven’t yet but I’d like to. The best camping I’ve don was in Juneau Alaska when my family didn’t have a house so we grabbed a tent and moved into the woods for a month or tow. I was only 6 and I loved it, I thought we should live in the woods every summer lol. The trees were huge, the forest was huge, everything was huge, and no one could ever find me because I always out playing in the woods. Part of the time we were next to the ocean and that was a lot of fun to.

one thing mmm... survival kit should be small waterproof and have everything you need in one small kit but without experience or a good state of mind you'll almost never be as sarge47 (perfect quote from boy scouts) said be prepared

Though a machete or lighter would be useful I wouldn’t be as calm as I’d be with a person, especially if that person has skills that I don’t. But a dog would help to considering how many uses they have.

At least you won't starve. Dog + large rock = several meals.

One thing? A knife or a Kukri, but if i had to have just one, the knife. Here are mine:

you have all dissapointed me, what is the one survival tool that you cannot live without?

your brain..

you should have all practised your skills repeatedly under different situations, the question was "what one thing" you can always make knives get food from plants get water stay warm make a shelter all from what nature provides but if you do not train you brain i dont care what one tool you have you will die.

always be prepared....

**trax** · 07-31-2007, 05:13 PM

I think that's just a little unfair bro, if people are out there without a functioning brain...hmmm...never mind...

**spiritman** · 07-31-2007, 05:16 PM

Maybe we just all figured that when lilbunnyfufu said " if you could have one thing" that he included every part of what is considered "you". I guess we were just all being silly about it.

**Strider** · 07-31-2007, 07:08 PM

I'd always take a knife, probably a big like foot long... it can be used for uncountable things... fire making, shelter making, signaling, protection, ...

**reggie31** · 07-31-2007, 07:31 PM

the knife is the obvious answer... but its not mine.. if i could have anything it would be a satellite phone.. if that answer doesnt count then give me les stroud, he can do all the work for me

If I can take another person I'd pick the Professor from Gilligan's Island, that guy's smarter than MacGyver!

go wolfpack!

**FVR** · 08-01-2007, 05:53 PM

I'd take Maryann and stay for awhile.

Yeah, not to sure I want to be in the woods without my brain. Went to the alter without it, and look what it got me.

But it seems that MacGyver could think of some handy thing to make, like make a compass, or use a bunch of things to make a radio... lol...

Dude could make a radio out of coconut shells, it doesn't get any better than that. Why didn't he get them all rescued? He was stranded on a desert island and knocking boots with MaryAnn, who'd want to go home?

ROFLMAO

My ax, used one for years on line work, can do most things with it.
Had a 1-3/4lb HB Voyageur 24" handle, now a smaller one GB Hunters ax 1-1/2lbs 19" handle.
But I keep thinking if I remembered to take the ax why not my bushpack that it is attached to?
