    I wish I had some time off, I would love to "rough it" for a few days. What is the minimal gear you are taking?

    Trolls get tossed pretty quick, generally....but was kinda waiting to see what was up with this "invite".

    But you maybe correct.....We will see.
    Stranger to all,.... comes aboard,.... issues a challenge to a long outing in HIS area.?
    Fine.....
    I don't know you.

    I wouldn't even go hunting or camping with some one until they have been vetted, by friends, personnel meeting in a natural setting....coffee as a coffee shop, maybe...
    So just the idea of saying "Yeah, see you Thursday'......isn't a prudent move.

    I am still trying to figure out if the "winner" of the challenge is responsible for hauling out the dead body of the "loser" of the survival challenge.

    When you lose at survival you die, correct?

    Or you at least have to put out your torch and go to the motel until the end of the season.
    If you didn't bring jerky what did I just eat?

    Shoulda seen our group's first camp. All the wives refused to go. All the guys showed up with side arms, axes, and knives. We have become quite a family over the years. Divine intervention?

    This spring I plan to go "survive" in Norcal (Redwood Forest baby!). Of course, I am bringing the camper trailer. It will be a family reunion kinda thing with 5 individual families. Let's see, my niece is the oldest at 15.....soo..22 kids under 15 with... I think.... 4-5 kids under 5. Yeah, I'm bringing the camper trailer.

    22 huh? You might want to consider this. Send it and stay home. I'm sure that would be a lot quieter.

    Not sure I could even get that into my county let alone into my favorite spot in the weeds. It would make a REALLY nice portapotty tho!

    I am sending you the cookie right now. So, what did you do, leave the state? What, are you crazy... it's cold up north. You have to wear shoes that cover your whole foot.

    I'm quite certain northern California "minimal gear" would be a bit different then interior Alaska "minimal gear".
    Why do I live in Alaska? Because I can.
