    Number one tip: Hydrate or die
    Number one skill: Building shelter
    Let freedom ring
    Let the white dove sing
    Let the whole world know that today is the day of reckoning
    Let the weak be strong
    Let the right be wrong
    Roll the stone away
    It's Independence Day

    ...The situation/circumstances. STOP! Remember! The 1st survival skill is to sit your sorry tail down and relax! Learn that 1st! Then follow the rest of the formula! Number one survival tip? "DFD" (Don't Freakin' Die!) Remember that BeeGee's Disco Song from "Saturday Night Fever"? "Stayin' alive. Stayin' Alive"!

    That took guts! I'm willing to drop all the past garbage and start new, and I mean NEW. I don't dredge up the past, and you don't! PAX! If you agree then we're definately Wolf Brothers! BTW, fire's no good up in the mountains above treeline, but I think you already know that.

    Don't eat yellow snow

    In all seriuosness train your brain it's the best tool you have. By this I mean go to your local public library and read every book you can find on the subject and actually try out what you learned in a controled environment. If possible take a class. The real tip I'll leave with here is don't eat mushrooms, the risk isn't worth it and they don't really give you too much by way of nutrients.

    Yeah, it actually takes more calories to digest a mushroom than it provides.

    Same with apples, though they do have nutrients not much for calories.
