Hey, chill the hell out fella!!!!!!!
Iv not looked on any of those forums either so have no idea of the content, I was just trying to help th OP and maybe point him in another direction he had never thought about.
It could have been just what he was looking for!!!
Fair enough, i just read it as you were trying to tell him to go else where and bushcraft was not what he was looking for. I guess i came off the wrong way too, sorry.
In terms of answering this question in the original post. Yes it does. Even down to the path you choose to get out. You will find different items even if you move a foot to the left in the same area and repeat. To answer this hypothetical question hypothetically is next to impossible as it could lead to an infinite number of outcomes and answers as I mentioned in my last post...
...Yes, this is absolutely true. But again the location provides different means and needs different skills to meet the requirements. To post all those skills needed into one post in answer to the original question would be akin to typing all the survival manuals and primitive skills books published in one place all at once. It's an impossible question to answer succinctly and in detail. CACTUS ELF has asked a question that is simply impossible to answer in a simple post on a forum. Bear Grylls has filmed about 500 hours worth of stuff based on exactly this scenario but with an easier option of having a knife and water bottle. I can't type all that into one post, as much as I'd want to. The variables are massive and almost infinite.
I completely agree with everything you just said, however my point was there is always basic needs that you have to fulfil in any situation no matter where you are in the world. No one gave a basic answer and the general response was "we need more details otherwise we can't help". Any bushcraft book i have read is always about Shelter, fire, water & food, I didn't see anyone else bring that up and that's what i was getting at. Of course being in a desert to being out in a jungle is going to be completely different & specified knowledge of a certain area is going be of great use. I just know that there are basic skills that you can adapt across the board no matter where you are to achieve the same results.
