    Survival Skills without camping?

    its not that I dont want to, I just don't think I can without suffering great needless discomfort. Theres a story about a guy that had the same youthful yearning to be out in nature, Chris McCandles or somesuch, and he was WOEFULLY unprepared and lacking wholy in ability - I'd never be stupid...

    Survival Skills without camping?

    I do, but its a concrete garden lol no grass or soil. I play around and have bonfires, lighting it with flint and steel, & cookng on open fires just to experiment a couple of times, seemed a precise art suppose. we young feckers are too used to modern life convenience as hazardous as that might...

    Survival Skills without camping?

    Very encouraging words, thank you, I really only considered giving it a try again after watching another old episode of Ray Mears & Les Stroud, I admire their resilience and its a trait I feel is lacking in myself. Of course, we should all want to improve ourselves so that's why I'm here :)

    I envy you, that sounds like the perfect existence, peaceful and calm, natural. I imagine one day when I'm an old fecker I'll be striving to live in a similar environment. But at 30, I've still got some juice in the tank to pursue adventure for alittle while longer hehe

    Survival Skills without camping?

    It's funny really, we assumed it would be fine as long as we had a tent, but we ended up sleeping in the car for heat purposes, I really didnt know what I was doing. Anyway - as for eating wild stuff, Im no where near that level. I guess a few Ray Mears episodes doesn't cut it, lol

Of course, I was a novice and didnt know what...
