[QUOTE=tunick001;40089]Lets say you just walk into the forest all alone with nothing but a sleeping bag, some water, 2 days worth of food, a first aid kit, and some extra clothes. What would you do next? How would you get extra food and water to survive?[/Quote
My drill instructor once said that there are no dumb questions only dumb answers. Sometimes I wonder...,:confused:
Not being a smart azz, but I can't see it happening. I have a sleeping bag and food and no knife? I carry at least 2 knives and a multi tool at all times, even working in the yard as well as 2 lighters a compass and micro LED light on my watch chain. Kits in all the vehicals and a psk even if I am fishing in the park. I would never think of being unprepared so I have no way to say what I would do in that situation as I would not let myself be there.
Beerrunner, what's a "psk"?
I vote "personal survival kit".Quote:

in that case:
i (we) stay in one of my cabins and have one of the girls drive to town to get supplies.

I'll spare us the details of "how" because I would simply be reciting common knowledge that most people on this forum already know.
Now...would I be able to survive 2 weeks or 2 months or however long? I think I'd stand a better than average chance as long as I rely on all the things I've learned and in some cases practiced in my life.
one of the reasons i train with my teacher is so that even w/o a psk i could survive indefinetley in the bush, but on the other hand there is no way i would be stuck for 2 months out in the bush if we follow what we have been taught then i would hope not to be out more thsan 72 hours,but if you are suggesting we are some how lost in the wilds of northern canada or alaska i would still say most of us would be prepared for the situation
always be prepared-prepare all ways
Step back through the looking glass Alice. You went out unprepared, never happen on purpose. On accident, of course turn around and go home, but if I left home in the first place I was prepared so now I'm not lost.:D Ahhh good to be back.
Well, I'd hike up to an Alpine lake, build a lean-to, get together fire-building materials, then make a fish trap at the exit of the lake, look for some stones to flint knap with and make some projectile points which I would fix to spears, then I'd make an atalatl and go hunting.
Everyday I would start my day trying to make my living quarters a little better, and collect firewood, then i'd spend the rest of the day hunting and fishing.
ah you guys, he's just trying to get people to show off a few survival skills, stop cross examining! I don't go anywhere without a knife either, but if I was in that situation...for whatever reason...I'd dang sure figure out how to make one. (with a doff of the hat and my thanks to the many helpful instructors on this forum)
Pretty much all my responses come from where I've spent most of my time in the outdoors and water shortage is never a problem where I come from. Making fire? Again, flint and rock/steel, make a wood drill, make a bigazz fire like Frank said and help will show up. Chances are I didn't travel all that far in two days cuz I'm kinda lazy. There's lots of things in the forest to make a shelter out of and they're easier to manipulate once I have an edged tool.
Two day food supply? I don't think it would take me all of two days to find fresh food, but I'd ration it too. Of course, what food did I take? If I brought any canned goods, then I just added a tin cup to my inventory...there's a jillion possibilities here.
What if you swamped a canoe in fast water and are hanging onto a tree extending over the river watching all of your gear floating away? You're wet, whatever you have on you is what you have for supplies.
