Think he'll do it?

[Mesquite]

Came across this in todays Daily Mail. It'll be interesting to see if he does manage a whole year, especially in the lean times of winter

Can he store foods he gathers, preserving it as long as he doesn't use anything other than what he has altready gathered? If so, he should do alright, a ten mile radius around his home is a big area and he would likely be the only one using those resources.

Quick spin round his 10 mile radius in a car picking up roadkill and bunging it in the freezer (all allowed)...no problem. Carbs will be a bore unless he allows himself to do stuff like glean after harvest in farm fields.

 

[Mesquite]

The article says he's allowing himself the use of a freezer and a cooker so as you say more than likely he will do it.

No flour tho ... I suppose it all depends on what is local environment is like, but still it will be tough.

I agree. It's an interesting concept in these times of shrink wrapped foods and everything you could ever desire from tesco's etc. I for one would like to see him succeed
